Corylophidae > Orthoperus - Orthoperus
Katy Trail, Perche Creek, south of W Rte. K, Boone Co. County, Missouri, USA
December 27, 2015
Size: 0.75-1 mm
*UPDATED TO REFLECT CORRECT INFO*
This is another specimen from previous pictures, but one that had a wing extended. Still collected from moss that was on the side of a tree; a separate tree from previous images, but within 10 m of other tree. Note size. Apologies for pictures, but they were taken through the ocular of a dissecting scope. Specimen was 1 mm at max (I measured it, but could not get the ruler and specimen in focus on the same plane).
