Ye it is a springtail - Collembola perhaps a Lepidocyrtus but it is 15 years since I did any work on Collembola and that was in the UK - not Norway.

Thanks, very hard to get since the little creature kept running for its life round and round leaf.
I guess I could have given it one more f stop, but this was right for the dark side of the leaf.
