Collembola, and perhaps family Entomobryidae.

Hello! Genus Entomobrya, and most likely E. multifasciata (but I am no expert). http://www.geocit...toinae.htm Best regards, Jürgen -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Juergen Peters Borgholzhausen, Germany WWW: http://insektenfo... -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= |

Thank you Pierre,Tomi and Juergen for ID'ing it as Collembola, Entomobryidae Entomobrya...possibly multifasciata. I don't have that one on my checklist, and having looked on the website you suggested Juergen I'm still not sure what it might be, as species seem to have lots of variations depending on location. Difficult little things  Regards Roger
