I found this Mayfly larvae in a bucket of water - with other creatures - I will make sure that the bucket never gets dry nor overflows and will regularly monitor it. I will upload later details of how I took this, if anyone is interested. The real size is 3.14 mm, magnifcation is 3.3

This is how I took the Ostracod photos. I just filled this up with water and put them on top of the leaf. This is not an extra representation, I did this afterwards, but is more or less accurate. In the real thing I had more leaves and they were closer to the surface. I had several Ostracods in the container.
