Notes
EW identified this as R. brevipes, which is correct based on N. American keys. But the sequence is very close to Tuebingen GenBank AF418604.1 and unlike R. brevipes, the specimen has a strong fishy smell. Spines are up to 1.5 um. For these reasons, MB proposes R. chloroides as an ID.
Habitat
solitary in sandy soils near coniferous trees where there were a lot of dead logs and with dead leaves and pines around
