Fourteen participants completed this week's survey under cool and sunny conditions. Like insects, springtails (see example below) have six legs, three body parts and antennae. Unlike the former, though, they have internal mouthparts and the ability, if environmental conditions are unfavorable, to actually shrink after a molt.
