I caught this gal on the outskirts of Anza-Borrego today. She's a decent size at a little over 2". These guys make burrows similar to Ts, but they're usually always accompanied by a pile of dirt around the burrow entrance and don't have the "hymen" webbing.
Good size local!
Someone here needs to put together a socal wolfy/fishy "page". _________________

There may be people who like centipedes. I have seen people handling tarantulas and scorpions, but never a centipede handler. I would regard such a person with deep suspicion...Now what sort of man or woman or monster would stroke a centipede on its underbelly "And here is my big good centipede." If such a man exists, I say kill him without more ado. He is a traitor to the human race.
She's *GORGEOUS*, Kyle!!! I love that Genus. I just can't get over those faces! :-) Jumping spiders are still my favorites, but these guys are my second favorites of the true spiders.
