I have been surprised this past couple of weeks to see creatures that I thought must be some kind of beetle showing up in my cropped photos. Another mystery that just would NOT be squeezed into a beetle box! I got a notice from iNaturalist.org that a friend in Texas had just submitted an elongated-body springtail and when I looked at it it matched another of my beetle pictures. Some colleagues (Vincent Lefebvre and Luis Miguel Constantino) from Researchgate.net suggested the elongated-body springtail Tomocerus minor and it does seem to match up. Like almost every springtail I looked up, this one has not been submitted from Michigan. In fact hardly any springtail has been submitted from a winter month in other states either. So if this is really the springtail I suspect it is, it gets a double whammy (State and month). If it isn't I'll really appreciate your telling me what it really is! Thanks!
