I was not able to make more photos being given the mediocre quality of my equipment.

Determination of sub-Family :
* Characteristics of our capture :
[see
viewtopic.php?f=104&t=53609&hilit=+Adaptation]
- Forewings with 1 Bulla
- Inner Eye margins convergent ventrad
then
[see
viewtopic.php?f=104&t=53530&hilit=+Adaptation]
- Spiracle of Tergite 1 placed behind the midlength of the Tergite
- Abdomen compressed, its segments 3 & 4 deeper than wide
- The Areolet of the right Forewing is not open on the left
- The Propodeum is reticulated wrinkled
- The Discoidella is present
So the sub-Family is
AnomaloninaeDetermination of Genus :
* Characteristics of our capture :
[see
viewtopic.php?f=104&t=57717&hilit=+anomaloninae]
-
dg >
gk- Clypeus without median apical tooth
- Hind Tarsal Claws with a large lobe
So the Genus is
HeteropelmaDetermination of species :
The European species of Genus are 5 ,
szepligetii is endemic of Hungary (I was not able to find the description of this one, the website concerned seemed to be temporarily inaccessible).
The 4 others are species of Genera (
sensu Schmiedeknecht) :
-
Heteropelma whose Legs 3 have the length of Tarsomere 1 circa 4 times the length of Tarsomere 2.
or
-
Schizoloma or
Exochilum , whose Legs 3 have the length of Tarsomere 1 circa 2 times the length of Tarsomere 2.
So our capture is a
Schizoloma or an
Exochilum.
-
S. signatum has the Flagella black.
-
E. amictum has the Flagella red +/- yellow.
Of where the determination
