Yes, a younger version. It's nice to have the range of instars for the guide. Out of curiosity, did you find these in the house, outside a house, or away from a house?
Moved from ID Request.

younger version
Thanks John. It was captured in the house. Coming up from the shower drain. Is it possible these are increasing due to the recent amount of rain? Always appreciate feedback.
