Comment:   Appears to be a species of Neuroleon, but cannot be sure. Neuroleon is a very widespread genus throughout Africa, into the Palaearctic and Oriental regions. SA has numerous species, most undescribed. Larval habitats vary, varying from freeliving in sand to rock ledges and cracks and crevices - even in old cracked stoeps.
