Thanks
Great! I'm glad to see a native species around here. Normally not much of that! Thanks again.

Houston, Texas
Eurymerodesmus sp. (Polydesmida: Eurymerodesmidae), one of the several species that potentially can be found within the Houston city limits, where I have personally collected them. A rare native North American species in an urban environment; good to see an indigenous form as opposed to the introduced European & Asian species that dominate our cities.
