Unidentified - Pseudachorutes

Unidentified - Pseudachorutes
Big Gypsum Valley, near Slickrock, San Miguel County, Colorado, USA
August 6, 2012
Size: .5mm
Desert Riparian, caught in willow habitat

Moved tentatively
Moved from Pseudachorutes.

Sorry for the (inadvertent) double move.

Moved

Neanuridae: Pseudachorutinae: Pseudachorutes sp.
An educated guess,
assuming the number of ocelli per eyepatch = 8
and given anal spines are absent.
If minute anal spines are present: Hypogastruridae.

 
thank you!
I'm surprised how much can be determined with this picture, it's so incredibly small it's hard to photograph! I'll check the eyepatch and anal spines

Moved for expert attention
Moved from ID Request.

I'm not 100-percent certain that this belongs here--but I can't imagine where else it might go. Frans will know.
