These are bigger than the globular sprintails (2mm long) and you see them
jumping like fleas.
Sometimes they simulate death, like the one on the bamboo leaf, other times
they just walk, like the one on the black plastic furniture ( I brought it there ).
That's all the kind of springtails I have over here ( so far :) )

Interesting details Jose, and a nice job of capturing them.

Wonderful shots Jose- Like the behaviour and the tuft of hairs behind the head:)
Think that one is different to any of the flatter ones I've captured-

Good shots, Jose. The second needs some sharpening IMHO.
I've never noticed any of these " Dots " here. Waiting for more shots of yours.

Great captures, Jose!
