Hadogenes weygoldti [Stahlavsky, Stundlova, Lowe, Stockmann & Kovarik, 2018*]

Hadogenes weygoldti

Male Hadogenes weygoldti from near Kliprand.
The smallest species in the genus, reaching just over 4cm. In this particular spot they cohabitate with Hadogenes phyllodes; a species that's more than double its size. You don't often find Hadogenes species living together like this because of competition for food and the one species falling prey to the bigger but I guess these have found the right balance to coexist.
