Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Snow fleas (Hypogastrura harveyi and Hypogastrura nivicola) are species of springtail. They are so called because they can most easily be observed jumping about on the surface of snow on a warm winter day. Adults are 1 2 mm long and their dark blue color makes them appear as specks that have been compared to pepper or ashes scattered on the snow, often near trees. There are many other species of Hypogastrura, most of which can sometimes swarm, but not normally on snow. Like other springtails, they lack wings but can catapult themselves in a random direction by releasing two tail-like "spring" projections (furcula) on abdomen IV.
