While these are likely to be a *Perga* sp. my understanding is that the larvae of *Perga affinis* and *Perga dorsalis* cant be separated visually. Don regarding the images of sawfly larvae on your website; where these validated identifications. ie where the larvae reared through to adults to confirm their true identity?
