Verry cool Eddy, a lot of excellent shots!

Really enjoyed those Solifugid pictures! The Amblipygid with some yellow around the prosoma is wicked...

Was that first opilione coverred by some mites? Looks like what those red dots are.

He he, nice pseudoscorpion... I think you need higher magnification for these though!

Thanks for sharing those pictures... problem now is I wish I could go back on the field.

How many pictures did you take in total? There must be loads after 5 weeks or so.

Uh, WOW! Beautiful shots of not only some stunning inverts, but achitecture, landscapes, etc.

You also have some very interesting centipedes in there...would you mind if I linked this thread in the Myriapod subforum? Unless, of course, you may be able to shed some light on what they might be?

Thanks for posting. I've been staring at this thread for a couple of hours now

Oh Great! at least you had water

[Jorge M]

Gorgeous!

Hi Eddy excellent shots!!!

Thanks for the pictures of the frog, they are really great, only I need it with me, hahaha!!!

Well, UMA is the name here in Mexico for the places where plants or animals are captive breed, in spanish means Unidad de Manejo para la Conservación de la Vida Silvestre.

We will be in contact Eddy, take care!

Really nice pictures! Just love those amblipygids and scorpions!
Must have been a great experience with all those monarchs!

 

[Michael Jacobi]

the pic of you and Stu on horseback may be my fave... although the Mexican selenocosmine is more dashing

 

[codykrr]

Just simply amazing! Love ALL of the pictures. I would love to be able to go down there someday and do that! I am totally jealous right now.

Also, was that a worm snake?

Great thread Eddy, I love the different pede pics. Thanks for sharing.

 

[Philth]

Great shots and thanks for sharing as usual Eddy, I love the red and black Solifugid at the top, very interesting.

Later, Tom

 

[Wadew]

Thank you for sharing

Great pics eddy...

But can we rename the thread 'collecting with Eddy Hijmensen?' ... i mean, ChrisH got recognition in another thread in this subforum.

I would like to comment on the picture with the horse-riding, which is particularly artistic. Perhaps more tarantula hunting should be done by horse, much like the glory days of H.H.Smith, etc, but it seems more difficult to spot the burrows from up on a high saddle. (yet this might help explain our lack of finding any species on that particularly fabulous day...)

Very nice thread! I am curious... what made the mogul of dirt in the picture right before the colorful solifugid toward the top of the thread? It looks very similar to what some of our native dwarf aphonopelma do.

I love the salamander pics! Looks like its a type of pseudoeurycea... maybe
P. bellii sierraoccidentalis??? One of my favorite genus of salamander! The amblypygids are top notch as well!!
