Bolitotherus cornutus - Bolitotherus cornutus - Female
Middleburg, Clay County, Florida, USA
March 27, 2011
Size: 9.8mm
Lighted sheet. Never thought I would ever see one of these. A female, so now
on a search for a matching male. This will be a good specimen to work on a
depth of field stacking series when I'm ready.
