General Species Information:
Found on Ellura (in the Murray Mallee, SA) and elsewhere
We can't be sure these 2 sightings are the same species. They are both tiny & we managed to measure the 2nd at ~3mm. At this size our equipement isn't sophisticated enough to get detailed diagnostic photographs, so stay with family level id.

This species is

Australian Native Species, not listed in the SA Murray Mallee Survey of 2010.
