Notes
This dusky was found crawling along the shallows of a gentle creek, scurrying up the sides of rocks and leaves before diving back into the mud below. Found in a nicely shaded creek crevice consisting of small pebbles, silt, mud and leaves, as well as some bigger rocks. Flat, grassy area with mild forest coverage.
