| p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · My First Encounter With Entomobrya nicoleti | |
This was found under detached bark on the ground in my garden. I had noticed some Entomobrya, which were distinctly paler, and with less dark patterning, than species I was familiar with. I wondered if they could be E. nicoloeti, which I had never positively identified before.
This one was quite active but paused occasionally, usually in a small canyon. With a 5mm FOV, this was essential. For reasons nothing to do with this shoot, the ISO was much higher than I would normally use, so the quality might be improved by a re-shoot.
This individual fits the description, in particular the two dark areas on either side, close to the rear of the abdomen, and habitat specifics in Steve Hopkins' key.
EM-1, 150mm extension form the sensor, including a Kiron x 1.5 Kiron Matchmate TC, reversed Schneider HM 40mm f2.8 at f8, twin TTL RC flash, on freestanding, hand-held.
