    Thanks for your input, Dr. Seow, and Peter.

    So expert opinion is now Schreckensteiniidae.. Kurt, think that if you ever see this again, you should take (a) voucher(s).

    Quite a surprise to settle on Shreckensteiniidae.

    There are only 5 species, none of them red.
    Forewing-shape, antenna & leg spines do not match.

    Yes, Seow - I do not think it evident either, that is why I suggested vouchers should there ever be a chance
