Face of the Silverfish

Not really a fish of course.. but a very common and very 'ancient' insect.

 

The Lepisma saccharina live and develop in damp, cool places, especially basements and eat materials that are high in starch, protein, or sugar.

And they can run like there's no tomorrow.

 

The silverfish is also known as fishmoth, carpet shark or paramite.
