Field Notes

Description:

At first glance, it's elongated body and posturing had me thinking this daddy-long-legs was a tailless scorpion. If I had to guess a species, I'd say Leiobunum ventricosum, but I leave this ID at the genus level and hope those who know better will provide the correct species. Thanks!

Notes:

Spotted along the Bear Creek Trail Ellijay GA
