~Sminthurinus aureus~
Well this was an unexpected surprise, I had just found a bog standard Dicyrtomina saundersi and this tiny little dude scuttles past, this I think is Sminthurinus aureus and is possibly the smallest Globular Springtail I have found to date at about 0.5mm, the best thing is I think I actually found 2 different individuals, so really chuffed, reckon I'm going to need more magnification LOL :o)
I have been off Flickr this weekend, had a severe case of ManFlu, will attempt to catch up this week :o)
Plenty of extra shots in the comments section
