A team of eight completed this week's survey under hot and sunny conditions. The jumping bristletail shown below is an example of an insect that is almost never noticed. Unlike the silverfish which it resembles, this small scavenger (about 1/2 inch in length) does not infest homes, residing instead in rocky areas with sparse vegetation.
