Island Bark louse - 3 - Lachesilla

Island Bark louse - 3 - Lachesilla
Avalon, Catalina Island, Los Angeles County, California, USA
July 3, 2010
Size: 2mm
A very tiny bark louse. Extraordinarily common, thousands of individuals present and on the move. Too small and too overcast for me to come out with a good picture though.

Moved
Moved from Barklice, Booklice, and Parasitic Lice.

Not the best photo, but I'm moving this one into the guide as it is currently the only representative for this genus submitted from CA.

Lachesilla sp. -- det. E.L. Mockford

 
thank you =v=
For showing these to Dr Mockford. This represents the 10th family of bark louse that I've shot since I've began paying attention to them.
