Hello! I am not familiar with these arthropods and I have never seen such a cryptic creature before. I found it walking among limestone rocks in Hungary. Its size was just a few mm. I vote for some kinds of Entognatha perhaps Collembola but to tell you the truth I haven't the vaguest idea at all. It seems to be completely blind I at least see nothing eye-liked thing. Much appreciate for any idea. eguzki attached the following image:  [100.1Kb] Edited by eguzki on 21-08-2008 21:06 Greetings, Tomi |

Hello! I think it is a species of the family Tomoceridae (Collembola), maybe Pogonognathellus sp? I am not sure, I do not work on these animals  Regards! |

as I can see in the key... the features to split between Pogonognathellus , Tomocerus and Tomocerina are not possible with this photo. I don't know which it can be among these 3.. |

I know well that in many cases it is not possible to ascertain even the family from photos. Thank you for your attention Jorge.
