Moved from ID Request.

It looks cool, but we would need better images to say much more.
I am aware of challenges of imaging specimens on this scale.

Images not needed for the guide.

Thank you.
That was my guess too, but this doesn't look very much like the other nymph thrips I've seen. It must be a very early instal larva.
