Gyroscala rupicolaObservador
rosenthalsDescrição
1 of 2 found in rich shell drift by the tent camping area at Flamingo (Florida Bay), at the end of the Everglades National Park Road. I have never seen rupicola during multiple visits at this site until that day. According to Bruce Neville, this could be the 1st record from S. Florida (or at least the 1st such record that he or I are aware of). Generally the distribution of this species had previously appeared to be discontinuous from NE Florida to Collier or Lee County, SW Florida. Shell ca. 16.5mm

Pareidolia growing strong!
It was growing at the base of a Rubus plant on a nursery so I don't know if this is local.

Please help me identify this animal I believe to be a cougar. Pictures were caught in front of my house on my security camera at 3:39 am. I have video as well (see link below). I uploaded some prints of tracks in my yard but I am not an expert so I don't know if these are from this or another animal. These are only a couple of the pictures of tracks taken. I believe he was in my backyard as well as the front based on potential tracks as well as my dog's reaction to scents in the back yard in the morning. It looked like he walked down the driveway on hard ice but these prints could belong to him.
I have uploaded video to utube for viewing on this link: https://youtu.be/XxQEEh-49EM

Drama. These guys all normally get along pretty well, but here a squirrel decided to start something and nearly got kicked in the head as reward. Moments later they were back to munching sunflower seeds side-by-side again.

WHAT!? HOW?! Definitely did not expect this. I think I gasped audibly when I first spotted these. FL first record I believe! No clue what species this could be, as there's approximately 0 known options for Florida as far as I'm aware. Maybe something undescribed? Collected one individual, it's currently in ethanol

Updated 11/26/2022. ID’d to species. Photos of male pleopod II added. Curvature on appendix masculina is not exactly as illustrated in the description, but is quite similar. Uropod exopod is subequal in length with endopod: a diagnostic character for the species. Without material from the type locality, I’m calling it T. subequalum.
Probably the most abundant invertebrate in most of the spring runs in the Lower Canyons. ID assumed to be T. subequalum based on proximity to the type locality in Big Bend National Park. This is the only described species in the region.
Whole body dorsal photo is a female. Ventral photo is a male showing appendix masculina on pleopod II.
Dissection and more detailed comparison with T. subequalum will be made in the future.

Under a rock. <1 mm long. Been keeping an eye out for these for years -- exciting to finally find one! One of seemingly very few records from southern California. Santa Ynez Canyon is quite moist already, made more so by recent rains, which is probably why this soil-dwelling hexapod (but not an insect)! was so near the surface.
