Notes:
WFC 134L: Found under coverboards along the loop hike at Quail Ridge on the field trip. This is Contia tenuis because of the subtle red and brown (longitudinal) "striping", the ventral scales having stark alternating dark and white (lateral) "stripes", and the tail tapers sharply into a little spike at the tip.
