I got this springtail species identified by Frans Janssens mid 2024. I mentioned in my ultimate springtail guide that I was attempting a culture of this species. I am now happy to report I had success and now have a contain filled with adults and babies. It is very hard to photograph small globular springtails but I tried my best using a post-it note and a clip on macro lens on my phone.
