Thanks Tony/Juergen yet again. I sent this off to Peter Shaw (Springtail Recorder for UK) who confirmed that it was P.longicornis,(recently renamed), T.longicornis is no more. I also found Dicyrtoma minuta in the same place, both of which are unrecorded in Shetland Regards Roger Edited by Roger Thomason on 20-02-2009 17:14 |
