Collected in small treed area under course woody debris at edge of sports field. 5 or more individuals remained stuck to underside of rolled log. Didn't collect (yet). Wonder what your thoughts are @sclerobunus and @harvestman-man? Something introduced is most likely. Thanks!

Not certain on the ID, moved too fast for my terrible camera to capture a better picture. Was only slightly bigger than my thumbnail. Palps were larger than average and almost black in color and no spinnerets immediately visible. Abdomen patterns were stripes of dark brown over light brown, no noticeable patterns on the legs.

Help! What is this beetle/bug? There seems to be an infestation or mass hatching around my house, outdoors. Small (up to 5mm), reddish brown with black markings near the head. Don't seem to be eating anything or mating and don't seem to bite. There are lots of them, possibly concentrated on the south side of the house. Possibly sexually dimorphic as there are some that are redder than others.

knocked out of a mossy stick. the stick was deciduous, and had Pulvigera moss growing on it, and some shield lichens.

among the various inhabitants were 5+ species of springtails, 3 mites, and this tiny spider.
