This springtail was living in pine needle litter beneath a Florida Slash Pine tree. I'm so sorry these aren't in better focus.

Calvatomina sp.5 indeed
They do resemble your other specimens quite well, although much paler.

 
Thanks
for this confirmation too. So far, in the 8-acre gopher tortoise preserve I'm studying, I've found this species in hammock leaf litter that consisted of oak, grape, and citrus leaves, and in pine needle litter from under Southern Florida Slash Pines.
