      Baha! I'm gonna post on BG to be sure, but it is the closest match I'm finding so far too. Thanks so much (even if it turns out to be wrong)! Posted 4 years ago

        Looks like the binomial name is correct, yet the common name indeed showed angularis. Replaced the common name. Posted 4 years ago

      And, wow, I think you might be spot on. I'm going through iNaturalist photos, and it looks like a dark/melanistic version of what I'm seeing! Posted 4 years ago
