Hello Sara,
this is not a Lepisma saccharinum.
It is either Ctenolepisma longicaudatum or Ctenolepisma calvum.
The difference between these two is:
Ctenolepisma longicaudatum has twelve ommatidiae.
Ctenolepisma calvum has eigth ommatidiae.
Best wishes,

Hello everyone
Could you please help me to identify this young silverfish?
It is a Lepisma saccharina or Ctenolepisma longicaudata?
It is long 5-6 mm without antennae and cerci
It was found in a sticky trap in a library.
Thanks
Sara
