The rain has been a boon for the bristle millipedes (Polyxenidae) on the stone slabs of the walkway walls.

(Bonus oribatid mite.)

it's cool and cloudy enough that a few bristle millipedes are out during the day

Indulged in a late night photoshoot with the bristle millipedes (Polyxenida, probably genus _Polyxenus_) that come out to browse on the stone walls around the garden. Saw the absolute tiniest bristlepede ever!

For far better close-up pictures, see e.g. BugGuide: https://bugguide.net/node/view/19106/bgimage

I lifted a bark and then found the smallest #millipede we have in Central Europe:

Polyxenus lagurus (Polyxenida: Polyxenidae)

Size is only 2-3 mm 📏
It seems to use bark beetle tunnels 🤔

in other news, found bristly millipedes (Polyxenida) and snout mites (Bdellidae) on my building's garden wall and was, unfortunately, very weird about it just as neighbours were coming home

#InverteFest humblebrag: looked under a chip of rock and saw two tiny yellow-beige dots that in shape reminded me of aphid fundatrices (though much tinier). Hit 'em with the 24x macro clip-on and discovered they were tiny baby bristle millipedes (order Polyxenida)!!!
