No it’s definitely something other than Stilbum sp. Stilbum have a protuberance in the middle of the thorax and large serrations on the end part of the abdomen.

Hi @SimoneC
Thankyou, this was at least 2cm long, could it be the same sp but large? Never seen one so big

Certainly seems big but otherwise doesn’t really look like Stilbum
