Iridescent Springtail 3 - Entomobrya unostrigata
Great Falls Park, Montgomery County, Maryland, USA
August 20, 2009
Found in mulch/leaf litter. They were all moving busily about, so getting a clear shot was difficult, but I'm submitting three. Different individuals, so not connected. This is the clearest of my three shots.
