Comments by the Expert Panel on this record:

Comment number:   1
By:   Mervyn Mansell
Comment:   Cannot id this any closer. Need to see wing venation at least. Most chrysopid species are quite difficult to distinguish, especially the females. Dissection of the male genitalia is usually required to distinguish species.
