Small Ant Mimic - Micaria pulicaria - Male
Krain, Unincorporated King County, Washington, USA
April 1, 2013
Size: BL=3mm
Collected from a mossy patch at the base of a large tree on a sunny afternoon. This is supposed to be one of the most common ant mimics in the Northern Hemisphere, but this is the first one I've ever found in my area.
