Unusual one! TWO yellow stripes on abdomen and yellow hairs on the sternites. Yay. One of two seen. @johnascher I'm basing this ID guess on the sternites and the comment on BugGuide regarding the photo I posted.

Description

This is the form Henry Hemphill referred to as ‘kelseyi’. Unlike typical flat Haplotrema minimum this form has a more conical high spire and is less broadly spread. I’ve found them near Glass Beach and also near the mouth of Pudding Creek in Mendocino County.

Coastal sand dunes, grass-shrub habitat.
