The species is known by common names such as clover springtail,[1] lucerne flea,[2] or Lucerne earth flea.[3] Common names such as Lucerne flea are misleading because, being a member of the Collembola, this species is not even remotely related to the fleas. Calling it a "flea" simply is a reference to its jumping ability and its small size.[4]

  • The species is known by common names such as clover springtail,[1] lucerne flea,[2] or Lucerne earth flea.[3] Common names such as Lucerne flea are misleading because, being a member of the Collembola, this species is not even remotely related to the fleas. Calling it a "flea" simply is a reference to its jumping ability and its small size.[4] The species originated in Eurasia, but in particular in Europe. However, it has been spread unintentionally by human agency. It now is present in southern regions of Australia and Tasmania, where it is considered a pest.[5] [6] It also is present in South Africa, New Zealand and the Americas. Its pest status varies from negligible to severe, depending on local circumstances.
