Springtail with banded antennae - Orchesella cincta - Female
Banning State Park, Pine County, Minnesota, USA
June 5, 2024
Size: ~2-3 mm
The area had received an above average amount of rain. I was seeing these springtails periodically around my campsite. One day while I was sitting at a picnic table, I saw this springtail walk by on top of it. I had my camera nearby and was able to get a few shots before it disappeared. Thanks in advance if this can be identified more specifically.

Orchesella cincta female
The males are more black due to which the white bands on antennae and body are more distinct.
