User's notes

Sighted on one of the information signs adjacent to ANBG's Red Centre. Its size is indicated by the $1 coin. These insects appear to be around at the moment, typically on tree trunks, but difficult to see due to their size. (See also sighting 4228427). This small louse had an even smaller mite attached to its leg, as seen in some of the images.
