Description

from vernal pool

Rarely active unless the dish is jostled,
then re-appearing and slow moving until suddenly dropping straight down
into the substrate, raising a cloud of particles.

Capable of very fast forward movement if provoked.

Cilia may be visible in the photos — now taken with a lens extension for larger images.

Slowly meandering along the dish.
Estimated at half the size of a somewhat similar animal
