Still immature but certainly appears correct for F. septica - great

@Teresa seems to be popping up all over the place at the moment!

@ csteele yes, although myxos are around all year there are certain species that tend to be more 'seasonal' than others. This one always appears late summer early autumn in this area. Not unusual to find other species nearby either, but they are often overlooked due to their tiny size of a couple of mm.
