” I suppose you are an entomologist ? “
” Not quite so ambitious as that, sir. I should like to put my eyes on the individual entitled to that name.
No man can be truly called an entomologist,
sir; the subject is too vast for any single human intelligence to grasp.”

In contraction, Amphileptus procerus looks something like that. See here: http://www.plingfactory.de/Science/Atla ... s8693b.jpg However, identification by approximate shape is not ideal. It would be helpful to have a sharp view of the ciliary rows.

I agree with Bruce Amphileptus procerus is a good candidate its size varies from 200 to 800 µm
