Good luck! So now you all have me curious about these cryptic species! What size exactly are these guys? Are we talking like 1 mm? 

Most species are over 2 millimeters long.

You under leaf litter in a hollow twig.


Edit: When you try to type fast.

What the sentence is supposed to say: You find them under leaf litter in a hollow twig. :lol:
