There's some other species that aren't listed in the catelog, but of all the ones that are, I think lepturus is the closest match (overall color/shape, and the colored part of the tail).

I agreed on the tail part and the size..

Any other opinion ?

I just added three more species of to the Cat-e-Log. The genus should now be complete. No pictures yet but maybe soon.

That all said, the only three described spp. from or near Venezuela are melanopterus, lepturus, and kryptos.

Cheers, Eric
