The Blithe Stinglider is seldom found in the Tamaqua area. They are almost never harmful to large mammals such as humans! (Only three decapitations have been recorded in this area in several decades.)
Due to their larval/nymphal diet of anthracitic
gravel and coal detritis, both Blithe and Vapid Stingliders
excrete petroleum-laced, plasticine substances. Stinglider fewmets resemble
small flared, hollow cylinders with one fringed end.
These cryptids have also been observed to create
cocoons or chrysalids out of plasticky secretions, which is extremely
unlikely to happen here.
