Field Notes

Habitat:

Fresh water pools in center of bromeliad plants in suburban garden.

Notes:

With all the Zika news I was curious about what was living in the water of my bromeliads. I didn't find any mosquito larvae, but did find a lot of these. If anyone has a more specific or better ID please comment.
