    Rosemary Jorna sends photographs of a globose springtail (Dicyrtomidae) from her maple tree near Kemp Lake, March 18.   Dr Frans Jannsens, University of Antwerp, writes:  This is a new undescribed species of Ptenothrix.   At collembola.org we have called it sp.3, tentatively.

   Jeremy Tatum writes:  The site collembola.org that Dr Jannsens cites is very interesting!
