My fiance found this tiny female solifuge (slightly less than an inch) while doing field research. She was obviously gravid. I'm not sure what species she was. I just thought I'd share! I almost never see these little guys but when I do catch a glimpse of one, I'm thrilled. IMG_20220513_213835464_HDR~2.jpg

She's going to have some stretch marks, I'm afraid...

Nice pic!
