For a picture of the larva see page 101 of my book. One of the ugliest you will see.

Thanks for your photos. I have downloaded one of the original photos, cropped it and added it back to be used on the Species page, see:-

MichaelB I should have cropped it myself, so thanks for doing so. I should add that this was discovered by Kim Pullen but i was the one accompanying him with a camera. GeoffR
