To answer to this question, the first thing needed to study is What is

Springtail (Collembolan) ? Collembola Lubbock 1870 is a subclass
that consists of 4 orders, about ten families, nearly 70 genera and
nearly 300 species. Is it right that these above-mentioned springtails
are at least one of the following species:
Folsomia candida, Proisotoma minuta (of Isotomidae family)
Kalaphorura burmeisteri, Protaphorura armata (of Onychiuridae family)
Anurida granaria, Monobella grassei (of Neanuridae family)
