Collembola - Bourletiella arvalis
Copyright © 2009 Scott Justis

Collembola - Bourletiella arvalis
Norfolk, Virginia, USA
April 12, 2009
Size: ~1.3mm
Found under piece of bark in the leaf litter. I was only able to get a short series of images as it decided to eject itself from the scene. Also found another globular, similar in size, but a real nice orange color in a nearby location. Will post images of this one when I get time.
