Identity based on comparison to a photograph of the holotype, courtesy of Carolus Holzschuh.
Origin: Sabah (N. Borneo), size slightly over 20mm
An interesting species, and rare in collections I have seen. I speculate that this species uses its coloration to avoid detection when resting on a branch, limb or trunk of a tree. |
