The size of this one is .068 mm. It has no spots, but has faint marks as seen on the photo. I need the genus please, and species if possible.  |

Sorry Leon but 0,068 mm would need a good microscope to be able to see it, and I guess you made a mistake with conversion from imperial measure A+, Michel |
