    Yeah, I missed you :-)

    No idea what your bug is, though.

    We've certainly missed you.

    For the bug, I believe we're looking at a member of the Plantae.

    Missed you.

    Off to work in minutes so I'm just going to hazard that it is a leafy liverwort, Marchantiophyta.

    As you can see, CoO attracts only the most erudite commenters.

    Points are going to be a bit thin: no-one picked up that I'd already used the same photo, with identification label, at Variety of Life. Because I'm such a nice guy, I'll give Pat one point for suggesting a leafy liverwort, even though it's actually a moss ;-P

    Crikey even I knew that but I've been tripped up so many times now that I daren't speak.

    I was going to say it's a tardigrade, if you look closely enough. And yes, I CCCCAAAARRRRREEEESSS...!

    Damn, asleep at the switch again. Welcome back.

    I'm going to go ahead and just keep reloading the site until the next NtB pops up.
