I understand. I appreciate any help but no problem if it remains unidentified.

I haven't seen one as large as this. I'll try to help but I am very bad at invertebrates taxomony (I flunked an exam as a proof). There are too many of them and they look the same!

Great photo Dan! Looks like something you'd see on a necklace, not that I'm for killing creatures to wear them around your neck. Lol!
