We have another photo from my last trip to Iona Island this week. It was on that trip that I learned about the hopping and burrowing habits of some amphipods known as beach hoppers. As an Albertan I had naively assumed amphipods were all aquatic but there are in fact many terrestrial amphipods in damp habitats. I’m not positive on the ID but it closely resembles this photo of a California Beach Hopper (Megalorchestia californiana).
