They certainly make Opiliones a bit different in NZ! This incredible arachnid is one of the ~160 native NZ species of 'short-legged' harvestmen (Laniatores), in the family Triaenonychidae, possibly Algidia sp.
Thanks to Bryce McQuillan for ID help.

The distinctive ground beetle genus Notiophilus are also known as 'springtail stalkers', as they're the last thing many springtails and other small invertebrates ever see!

Have you ever thought to yourself "I sure do love earthworms, but I just wish they were smaller"? If the answer to that was yes, then Potworms (Enchytraeidae) are for you!
Potworms are basically just scaled-down versions of their earthworm relatives, and occur in large numbers in habitats that tend to be less hospitable to earthworms, such as very acidic coniferous forest soils.

the great barrier reef linked with the Baltic haddock population?
As strongly as I'd love to know, I'd rather prefer not to find out.
@Yarideki Given your remarks on macrofauna, I think you might like some of the artwork here...

Lots of neat, giant creature art by Ariduka, who unfortunately recently deactivated their deviantArt.
Before then, I had even edited one of their drawings to try to match @Azure 's colors: https://vulpine.club/media/087d20FyzIMSn7oyv5Y
