Athanasios G Mpamnaras Popular answer

Hi, I suggest the subfamily Emesinae of Reduviidae, and genus Stenolemus..

Vincent Lefebvre

Hi,

Very cool insect ! I think this is not a Mantispidae.

The head and rostrum (resembling that of nabids or reduviids) seem to indicate a carnivorous Heteroptera species, but nothing certain.

Athanasios G Mpamnaras

Indeed this looks like a Stenolemus or very close !

Peter H. Roos

Thanks a lot Athanasios and Vincent for help in identification of the insect.

Best wishes, Peter

Luis Miguel Constantino

Yes, Athanasios is right. Is Stenolemus near lanipes (Reduviidae)
