The link above provides recent updates (FEB 2019) about taxonomy for species in Hypoblemum. Although an individual like this one may have previously been clumped with H. albovittatum or H.villosum due to lack of definite and accurate descriptions, with the new identifications they are now their own distinct species! This individual is an immature (indicated by the distinct markings on the abdomen) female Hypoblemum griseum. Please refer for the link at the top of this comment from page 26 for descriptions and photos for females and page 35 for further descriptions and photos for immature females.
