Quite tentative on the id- all I did was to try to match up a species already recorded in Erongo. It was under a rock in the lichen field.

Description

Edit: I was contacted privately to confirm location, which I did. The timestamp on the photo is 5am 1 December 2017, which was the morning after we camped just outside Unguana to bird the area. We woke up, saw the tunnel between our tents after setting up in the dark the night before, and teased her out... The timestamp correlates with BirdLasser location records from the same day.
