In soil chambers of Camponotus johnsoni(?) colony beneath stones, in Adenostoma Artemisia shubland. Other specimens were found in other colonies of the same Camponotus species, but none were seen under stones without the ants.

On twigs and decomposed granite gravel around base of unknown shrub. At night in granite ravine in desert shrubland. Rained in preceeding days.
Two individuals were observed, though there were likely many more. The coloration effectively made them disappear into the granite soil when not moving.
Apparently an undescribed Prorastriopes species per Frans Janssens:

This specimen, found on some sort of tuft attached to a barrel cactus, appeared to be a small insect at the time. Magnifying the photo now later I see it is a globular springtail, the first confirmed specimen I've found.
I am very surprised as to the habitat it was found in, though doubtless it is some sort of arboreal species.
Temperature was in the 70s°F. No observable moisture was present.

Thanks,

After 5 days, first instar larvae (2-3 mm in size) have emerged from the egg stalks suspended under an aphid infested Sonchus oleraceus; Sow-thistle leaf. Eggs documented here: https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/73158221. According to BugGuide, brown lacewings lay their eggs directly onto leaves, green lacewing eggs are suspended from the leaf by long, thread-like stalks. Occurred in natural conditions.

Not true bugs as I had first thought. These are hopping bugs, but given absence of modified hind legs, it seems they just have quick bursts of flight that mimic hopping.

They were quite interested in the mealybugs (Heliococcus atriplicis? or Phenacoccus) on this host plant, but I didn't see if they were feeding or ovipositing on them.
