All your images from the Smok
All your images from the Smokies are beautiful! They're Xystodesmids, but there's a lot of diversity in that area, and you'll probably only be able to get identifications to genus, if that, for most. Examination of the male gonopods is necessary for species ID. These are great images to have on BugGuide, nevertheless.
