Katiannid Springtail
One of the few adult instars of this springtail (Katiannidae Genus nov.1 sp. nov.) that I saw in the garden today. Lots of early instars around though. This individual (~1.15 mm) is a female of the Group 1 type. They have a non-pigmented 6th abdominal segment (not really visible in this shot). She's scuttling across a piece of broken terracotta pot.
