that Yersiniops, reminds me a chapulin

 

[Precarious]

Nice! I didn't catch any actually hatching. Good job!

I just got some Litanuetria minor which are a pretty similar tiny species. Eyes are less pointy with white specks. Photos and video soon...

Thanks man!

Do you have L. minor from Yen? I have them too, and I can't wait when they will hatch

Yes, from Yen. I have a ton of ooths. A single nymph hatched on the trip and I lost it when I was trying to take photos. They are really fast! I searched for it for a long time but couldn't find it. Unlike Yersiniops they stay on the ground and run like heII.

This is the only pic I was able to get before it went missing...
