This is an entirely new genus to me. Anyone with a scope/camera setup want to take a look-see? I have specimens! <br />

    1. Thank you! I was so very excited to see these! Such a surprise! Posted 4 years ago
  2. Fantastic! I'm so glad you got the genus ID! It needs to be scoped to get to species? Posted 4 years ago
    1. Even then, it isn't really guaranteed. This isn't a well-known / well-studied genus! I'm asking around to see if anyone is interested in studying this one. Posted 4 years ago
