Specimen type: Photograph
Observation notes: Sunny, warm- near 70 degrees F, calm. Two seen briefly feeding on fleabane in a fire recovery area dominated by aspen at an elevation of 8575 feet. What I see in this fresh individual (per Glassberg) is relatively long palps, a wide gray area at the FW wrist, and gray rings sort of visible at the abdominal segments. I am guessing this is a male?
