Moss Scorpion Neobisium sp

Many Pseudoscorpions in Western Europe are of the genus Neobisium. A more common name for this group is Moss Scorpions. You need a microscope to tell the various species apart. Most Moss Scorpions live under stones, under bark or in moss. All are brown to black (males are darker than females), whilst the claws are reddish brown. They feed on very small animals, such as bark live, aphids and springtails.
