Description
The snake was first observed on 8-23 2024 at 7:27 AM. It was found on the shoulder of the road. There was no sign of trauma. It did not move or use its tongue. There were several Western Yellowjackets starting to consume flesh on its tail. Over the next 57.5 hours I came back 9 times to document the consumption of the flesh by the Yellowjackets. I have included some of the photos here. I took time zero to be when I first saw the snake.
Photo 1- Time zero, 13 Yellowjackets.
Photo 2- 8 hrs later, 4 Yellowjackets. Since the head moved from its position at time zero, it may have been alive when I first saw it. It is possible that the head was moved by another person also.
Photo 3- 23hrs 18 min later, 42 Yellowjackets.
Photo 4- 35 hrs later, 65 Yellowjackets
Photo 5- 47 hr, 45 min later, 55 Yellowjackets
Photo 6- 57 hr 32 min later, 4 Yellowjackets

Description
Fairly sure this is Chihuahuanus, not Paravaejovis spinigerus as the claws were thicker compared to the body size and the body pattern was different compared to all of the Paravaejovis spinigerus I saw in the area.

Description
P. hirsutipes have long been a subject of confusion, in large part due to errors in their original description. The so-called adult females he based the description off of are actually juveniles. The adults are twice as large, similar in size to typical mid-sized Paruroctonus such as P. baergi, P. silvestrii, or P. boreus. This, along with their long pectines, contradicts the hypothesis of them being a part of the P. borregoensis group. Instead, they seem slightly more reminiscent of P. baergi / arenicola, although adults look quite strange and very unlike any other California Paruroctonus.

I would have rescued the little luteolus but it was no longer responsive and didn't react when I poked it, so it must have already become paralyzed by the venom. The S mesaensis was rightfully annoyed with all my poking and prodding and dragged his takeout back home.
