While I am in the photo filing mood, is it possible to get some identification on these please.
Burnet larvae? Taken on the north east coast.

Don't know - taken in a Northamptonshire woodland back in May.

Vapourer?

Gah searching like a mad man for this one - find it on Juncus alot!

Any online caterpillar keys? I found an American one....
