Comments ID by Robb Bennett. Ventral abdomen markings LOOK more like those of L sclopetarius but most of the BC records for sclopetarius are from farther south than 108 Mile. .... There is a very good chance that this introduced Palaearctic species is now in the mid-Fraser area. Really need a specimen under the microscope to tell for sure
