What genus this young instar geometrid larva could be? It was seen to be fed upon thistle plant (Cirsium arvense). Location: Central European Russia, cereal crops. Sergey Golubev attached the following image:  [65.12Kb] Edited by Sergey Golubev on 30-11-2006 09:33 |

I think some Idaea sp. (Geometridae), like I. biselata. |
