\u00a0\u00a0 <\/b>Ian Cooper gives us another collection of miscellaneous invertebrate creatures from Colquitz River Park and the Galloping Goose Trail last night.\u00a0 Ian and I (writes Jeremy Tatum) have worked hard on the identifications, and while we cannot guarantee them 100 percent, we think we are probably pretty accurate as far as we can go.<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0 Harvestmen usually have four pairs of legs.\u00a0 The one below has presumably had an accident, since it has only three pairs.\u00a0 The missing pair is probably the second pair,
\nwhich, in an uninjured animal, is longer than the other pairs.\u00a0 Hence the short-legged appearance of this harvestman.<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0 The sharp-eyed will spot a tiny animal near the end of one of the legs of the spider below.\u00a0 This is probably a springtail (Collembola).<\/p>\n
