One of many, and I do mean many males calling in a small seep off the side of the road. The sound was lovely but deafening.

Location accurate, collected 4 specimens (**actually three! they ate the wimpiest male before I could get ethanol to specimen-ize them) and a soil sample from the pool, hopefully containing eggs. Possible first record in Florida??

On this particular afternoon, I was chasing some trespass cattle off the Refuge and back onto an adjacent ranch. I documented the downed fence and I'm cropping some images to show a few plants in this remote corner of the Refuge (Williamson Co. portion).

Doesn't key out well; long-ish ligule and narrow-ish leaves would mean D. filiramum, but that seems to be a very poor fit; common in xeric pine savanna

I'm not sure whether to mark this captive/cultivated or not. It is from a derilect experimental plot, and ut is no longer tended to.

argentumaurumDescription
Very difficult to get a good photo, may try and take better ones with an actual camera, but this plant was growing in near-pure sand, in the middle of a clump of some sort of small grass. Has one thick, fleshy root, no visible leaves, and several extremely diminutive crimson red flowers.
