Maybe a partly disconnected Hemibela species. @Hejor1 : hope you have it in protected custody?

@donhe I do, however there is a hole in each end so I think it’s hatched. I have seen one exactly like this before in O’Connor but can’t find the sighting now. Looks like a single piece of bark rolled into a straight tube a few cm long, suspended by 2 threads.
