Tylobolus? - Tylobolus uncigerus

Tylobolus? - Tylobolus uncigerus
Oaks Bottom Wildlife Refuge, Multnomah County, Oregon, USA
March 5, 2016
Size: About 4 inches
Hi, everyone

I think that this is probably a species of Tylobolus. After I picked it up, it started to secrete some yellow defensive fluids.

Is the median suture line only present in spirobolida, or is it also found in julida?

Thanks for your help,
Phil Nosler
