Toasty-warm off the heels of the discovery of Amydromorphus lissobunus, another species has been discovered by occlupanologist E. Welby on a bag of L’Oven Fresh bagels, in Nashua, New Hampshire.  A. bellulus shares a similar host organism to A. lissobunus, and may be found in similar grocery-aisle niches, though A. bellulus exhibits a smaller oral groove. Species had been previously described by C. Huning of DWORC. A second specimen was recorded in Massachusetts by FORC occlupanologist S. Lucio.
