Barklouse - Anomopsocus amabilis
Groton, Middlesex County, Massachusetts, USA
December 22, 2010
Size: 2.5mm to wingtip
I found a few of these dead inside an old yellow jacket nest.

Anomopsocus amabilis (Walsh) -- det. E.L. Mockford

 
...
Another new species and genus! Thanks for showing it to E.L. Mockford.

 
showing is nothing; it's posting that matters!
why do i love so dearly these unassuming, fragile critters? they are magic.
thanks, Tom -- and Merry Xmas!
