NS4573 : Velvet Mites
near to Bowling, West Dunbartonshire, Great Britain
Velvet Mites
There are several species of Velvet Mite in Britain (it would be pointless to speculate about which one is shown here). From above, their body shape resembles a strawberry, with the broader end at the front: NS4573 : A Velvet Mite. They are arachnids rather than insects.
I encountered these ones in the woods beside a NS4573 : Footpath above the shore. For mites, they were surprisingly large.
