Notes

When I initially saw this specimen on the creek bottom, I though it was a large P sierra with a very interesting pattern. It was not until I removed the specimen from the water and saw that it did not have the typical P sierra eye mask that I took a closer look and realized what it was.

First photo is in situ. Second is crop of first.
