Is this a pigmented lesion ?
This is a scabies mite. The head of the mite is at 12 o'clock. Look hard!!

This pigmented lesion has a pattern of dark brown clods that are evenly distributed on a uniform brown background.  The border is sharply defined and the lesion stands out from the skin and has been present for a long time.  This is called a Unna Nevus and is benign.

The pattern  is reticular dark brown with sharply demarcated borders.
