Moved from Rock Bristletails.

Poduromorpha
As John pointed out it could be Hypogastruridae indeed. If from sandy beaches it could also be Neanuridae.
The bristletail resembles Dilta of the family Machilidae.

Moved from Bristletails.

Springtails
The purple things are springtails. They might be Hypogastruridae. I don't know why they would crawl on a bristletail. You can move this one image over to the springtails section if you want somebody interested in springtails to see it.

 
I moved
the one photo to Springtails, but I am not sure how to unlink it from the Bristletail photos without unlinking them all.

 
Linking
Unlinking is not required. If you want to unlink this from the rest tag the first five and click on "link". When you "link" the system first unlinks the whole set to which the photos belong, then links the ones you have tagged. You can tag the first five most easily by clicking "tag all" then "untag" on this one.

 
Thanks
That was quick.
