Heterocaecilius sp. - Heterocaecilius - Male
Odiorne Point State Park, Rockingham County, New Hampshire, USA
September 28, 2021
Size: ~ 2.5 mm
Don Candler collected this specimen and sent me the image. In Ed Mockford's (1) he describes Heterocaecilius sp. "The genus is represented by a single undescribed species collected at Great Sippewissett Marsh, Barnstable Co. MS. It is not known if the species is permanently established". We now know it is permanently established!
