small UV-fluorescent spirobolid. photos are of captive specimens, but date is accurate to when I found the founding population. they have since disappeared from that location and I have not found more in 2023 or 2024.

Dark brown body with light brown lines running down entire body. Has a lot of legs. Found moving around by wet area in forest.

A REQUEST:
When recommending an identification, please adhere to current standards of taxonomy as deployed by iNaturalist at this time — as opposed to identifying and classifying organisms based on personal beliefs about what taxonomy can, should, or of right ought to be in opposition to iNaturalist’s current taxonomy. Comments noting such taxonomic disagreements, however, are welcomed and encouraged. I prefer my observations to be inline with current taxonomic standards as deployed by iNaturalist (as opposed to my personal beliefs) so that this and other observations are readily accessible to iNaturalist users with greater efficiency and usability. Thanks!

If you have any questions regarding this observation, feel free to contact me or leave a comment below!
