Is this a predatory or detritivorous species?? +1 While viewing this nice pic, I feel like a predator viewing my prey item via a "temperature X-ray" device. Very neat work there liocheles.

+1
Mind sharing what equipment was used to achieve the pic? Olympus microscope, the pic is under 10x lens enlargement. i'm using methyl red staining, got another that using iodine staining, but this one more clear with background staining rather than iodine that used to check out the morphology of the mites. | |
