The other springtail I found on the lychgate-post. Really big this one, at least 5mm. A real bruiser. Very beautiful too.

Blind or partially blind springtail Heteromurus nitidus, about 2mm body length. Found some of these on top of the leaf litter in my compost heap yesterday

An unusual POV

I found several of these Pseudosinella springtails in the Wichita Mountains. I'm not sure what speccies they were, but they look similar to P. rolfsi. I don't know if the white spots were caused by the flash or were actually on the springtail, but several of them had them.

Pleasantly surprised when found this when looking for the minute beetles. Of similar size but not shiney.

This does give a better sense of scale- ant with one of the springtails I've been photographing recently
