| | | Re: Walking rockery ID please. The rockery is like a caddis larvae but the jaws are surely of a lacewing larva.
Don't the hemerobiids do this? e.g. Green Lacewing - DirtDoctor.com - Howard Garrett - The Dirt Doctor

| | | Re: Walking rockery ID please. Just a lucky guess....
No... ta for the info - had a quick scan of larvae before posting, lacewings did seem to fit the bill, but no mention of all that detritus piled on top.
Aw well...
Cheers.

| | | Re: Walking rockery ID please. Loosing track with all the time travel etc. so not sure it has been cleared up, but it's certainly a lacewing larva and yes, (some of?) these do pile up rubble on their back for camouflage |  | | | Thread Tools | | | | Display Modes | Linear Mode |
