While swimming in a creek today in Kansas, we found these just above the waterline in holes in the mud facing the sun. They plug the holes with their head/shield then when you get close, they retreat into their hole. They are about 1/2 inch long. Im curious if they are larva of something or if this is the adult. If anyone knows what these are or can narrow my search I would appreciate it. Thank you.
