Varjotuoksukeltiäinen (Lasius umbratus)Havainnoija
quadratmeterKuvaus
length 8.8 mm
Based on the "relatively yellow" legs and gaster underside, I IDed the individual as L. flavus. However, please feel free to disagree since I am a layman in ant taxonomy.
The gyne was found at the edge of a mixed forest on rotting Salix branches.

Native bush, in wet plant litter among fallen Nikau fronds.
Body length 37 mm.(antennae not included)
Probably unnamed. I would call it Peripatoides aff. indica or P. aff. aurorbis.
Absolutely splendid & my very best find in 2022.
I am still crazy excited by this. The colour was literally velvet.
I released the individual after photography.
My post of this Velvet worm achieved 100k likes and 11 million impressions on my twitter(url)!

トゲが長く伸びるという特徴よりWomersleymeria sp.であると推定
Presumed to be Womersleymeria sp. based on the characteristic of long extending spines.

Field Notes - I could see the tuft of feathers around the top of the beak but could make out the bird's colour. I think it was a tawny frogmouth. about as big as a Raven maybe 35cm
