Kalama tricornis
A lacebug with 2 rows of meshes along the edge of the forewings. The antennae are black and covered in bristles and longer hairs. It does not have 'occipital processes' or horn-like projections beside the eyes.
Dictyonota species have occipital processes but do not have hairy antennae; otherwise they are very similar
Detailed photographs, ideally from a specimen; these must show the antennae clearly.
