cold nip in the air so reduced to searching for slimey critters under rocks. this is apparently a Blaniulid - about 1.5cm long and less than 1mm wide.

I now believe they are actually a species of millipede and yes they run away as soon as you lift their cover.

Excellent series, and very well caught, considering they dont like Paparazzi too much, unique coloration as well.:D :D :D
