User's notes

Seemed a bit larger and darker than numerous Strepsicrates macropetana seen earlier, but just as hard to see when not moving.

Females are usually larger and darker than males, so it could be the same species. But Strepsicrates species are very difficult to separate, and I'm going to merge all the records at genus level.
