So is this pro-Redford or anti-Redford?
I remember the newly named slime mold beetles bushi, chenyi, and rumsfordi and now we have an algae slime beetle...

Great find!
Great find Crystal. And great that you extended the range of the family. And great that you posted images here.
I was hoping to run into some of these while I was down in AZ this last August. No luck though.
Thanks for sharing them.

Thanks so much for moving them. However, I wouldn't put a species name on them just yet, as we will not know what species they are until we get the genetic results back.
