jumping bristletail

jumping bristletail
Maquokata Cave State Park, Jackson County, Iowa, USA
August 5, 2007
Size: 1/2 inch
This was running along a wet moss and lichen covered cliff face. The guide seems to contain a couple of images of this species, but none identified to a lower level than order. Order Microcoryphia

Nice colors!
I've placed it on order-level page where hopefully a bristletail specialist will visit someday.
