0.5-0.7cm would be my guess.

Maybe Beirneola sp.? It looks like it's waving at you :). What do you think that red spot next to its foot is? Posted 6 years ago

  It was not waving, it was rubbing away a tear after our goodbye.
  
  The red dot...I was hoping you could tell me :) When zooming in very closely, I do think I see at least one leg, some mite, perhaps?
  
  Beirneola looks really good, thanks! Same green bars, blue head, size, distribution. Posted 6 years ago

    Lol, your subjects are always so sad to see you go!
    
    Red dot - I was thinking it could be a mite or beetle.
