Date

September 28, 2010

Description

sharp little claws, beautiful color.

As per Vincent Vos of Bolivia and Flávia Miranda of Brazil, both are in agreement that this animal is indeed 'cyclopes thomasi' of the family Cyclopedidae. It is NOT
'didactylus'.

In addition, this register is the only known find of Cyclopes thomasi in Peru!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Exciting!
