Very small, and I haven't been able to find any images that quite match this. Many apologies in advance for the photo quality!

Wow, thank you!
I did not think this photo would necessarily be very identifiable.
I also can't find any pages for the species on BG - new one for the guide?

If new, then ask Ken
to create a new page.
