This is one of the more interesting plants that I've seen at my site. There are a couple of them, but the one I took a picture of was in the field just north of the south side of the loop.

Found one under a small (liftable) log inside the loop trail towards the NE corner. Dark Gray hue, very slow. I suppose it is a decomposer. Living in close corridors with other insects.
