Drama. These guys all normally get along pretty well, but here a squirrel decided to start something and nearly got kicked in the head as reward. Moments later they were back to munching sunflower seeds side-by-side again.

Not quite sure what this is, but I dissected it from inside of a native centipede (Nadabius pullus) that was collected in May 2005. Documented parasites of lithobiomorph centipedes include Tachinids (Loewia) and Proctotrupids (Phaneroserphus), but I'm not sure if either of those are what I've got here. The parasite is about 5 mm long and 1.5 mm wide and was taking up the whole body cavity between segments 8-12. Parts of its body were sticking out of the spiracles of the centipede before dissection. Any help in narrowing this thing down would be appreciated! I'm assuming an arthropod based on what typically infests lithobiomorphs, but even that could be wrong.

I was flipping some logs and saw a fair number of these large centipedes and I saw an alligator lizard run by and figured I must have spooked it and then I saw another one dart by and it circled back around and went after one of the centipedes.
Here is a video of getting the centipede oriented correctly so that the lizard could gulp it down:

We watched the roadrunner kill the giant centipede by picking it up, shaking it and then flinging it to the ground, over and over for about 5 minutes! Then I think that he just dropped it in the nest because he was immediately back to jump up and grab a grasshopper off the wall and take it away. Passed through the yard multiple times with a bug in it's beak.

Otala lacteaΠαρατηρητής
gglwndsrΠεριγραφή
These snails were present in large numbers behind the Dune Line. The have been previously identified as Otala lactea, and are said to have been present at this location for almost a Century. I have an issue with this identification, as there are some notable differences between this snail, and typical Otala lactea, First, these snails only seem to grow to about a maximum size of 35mm. Second, the shells are almost alabaster colored, with little variability. The animal is much darker than Otala lactea, and the shell is thinner despite ample sources of calcium. It is my opinion that this is a distinct sub-species of O. lactea, or another member of Otala. I would suspect that only DNA analysis would be able to answer this.
