These were difficult to photograph as they are only about 1mm long (body)... I took about a dozen images & this was the best of the lot although it isn't that good. I found these under a big Oak leaf... Body wise, they have the same features, but the color is completely different

glancing to the left is that an old molt? Perhaps color is age related?

Can't tell if it is a molt or not. Damn things are too small to make out.
