Thanks, John -
I was wondering about sackeni but don't have a key & no experience with these.

If I squint at this photo...
...I can see how it would just disappear into the rock pattern. Nice images.

 
Thanks, Harsi -
Luckily, the camera registers more than seems discernible to the already sun-strained eye of someone lying flat in the wash.
