S-chaeta

  • A special bristle on the back that is smooth, blunt and more see-through than ordinary bristles. Its pattern is a strong guide to relationships in the Entomobryoidea. (at Introduction and Results)

Scales

  • Flat, overlapping plates on the body of some springtails. They rub off easily, and they give some species an iridescent shine. (at Introduction)
