Another nice Corticaria sp.
Thanks Derek! This one could possibly be male, from the look of the first protarsomere in your ventral photo. Dissection necessary for absolute species confirmation- we have many undescribed corticarines in North America. I'll email you more comments on how to go about doing so! :-}
