We had time last week on NHM-London’s SEM! So we decided to look more closely at a cave pseudoscorpion we found as a part of our Matienzo Karst Entomology Project.

(Thanks to Tom for the photo - I couldn’t physically be there so we used the magic of the Internet that day!)

Thanks to the BNHM for supporting our work :)

There are few soil organisms more wonderful than Pseudoscorpions, it's always a joy to find one when I'm out with my camera!

This stout little murder machine is a compost chernes (Pselaphochernes scorpioides), found on decaying leaves in an open compost heap.
