hi otherinsektlarvaforum, I think this larva is something like Dichochrysa spec.? Or is it Micromus tasmaniae? Some larvae dress them selve with plant-trash, this one doesn't? But my experience with these kind of insekts is not much. I hope someone can tell some more about these specie? size:~8-9mm place: bridge Amsterdam Forest Robert Heemskerk attached the following image:  [125Kb] Edited by Robert Heemskerk on 09-11-2007 22:52 |

Hello, It is hard to distinguish between Chrysopidae and Hemerobiidae. Some larva use remains of their preys to hide themselves inboth families, as far as I know. There is a way to make a distinction by the opening of the mouth parts and the proportions of the head, but I never succeeded. By the way, there is something of the neck of this specimen...

Thank you Pierre for your answer. I'll call it Micromus sp. with a question mark. The findingplace was next to water. |

But it's not a Diptera, it's a Neuroptera. |
