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.

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.

Before then, I had even edited one of their drawings to try to match @Azure 's colors: https://vulpine.club/media/087d20FyzIMSn7oyv5Y
