Since there are no proper specimen pictures of this specied online(not so surprising), I've decided to throw some in myself. Legs not as red when alive though.
Currently only known from South Korea, this species is rather widespread but more in the western part of the nation. The japanese C. amamianus seem to be the closest known species of this enigmatic endemic.

Nuptial flight preparations. A nearby colony of Lepisiota where interacting with them. No violence but they did seem to push each other away.
