another discovery in the early morning lawn, with the vegetation still full of moisture..
O.k.....thanks Dietrich for help and determination of this larva

The Tenthredinoidea are the dominant superfamily within the Symphyta, containing some 7000 species worldwide, primarily in the family Tenthredinidae. All known larvae are phytophagous, and a number are considered pests.

Excellent macro, great colors and composition!

Ciao Sergio. Coefficiente di difficoltà elevato ma te la sei cavata egregiamante ottenendo un ottimo dettgalio sulla larva e una intrigante arminai di lucue e colori. Davvero un'ottima macro.

ps. I "cugini" - almeno i nostri, l'hanno sfangata ieri sera eh?

Hi Sergio,
you seem to be looking at one of the last stragglers before reaching a winter shelter. The light plays some tricks on the shot, but this is clearly a Tenthredinidoidea larva, for instance Hoplocampa testudinea (on apple). The black eye and the one abdominal segment carrying no legs distinguish it from lepidopteran caterpillars. TFS.
Best regards
Dietrich

Dear Sergio!

I'm glad to notice that Dieter has determined the ID of this nice fellow. This adds to the value of the picture. The caterpillar with the nice head and the morning dew create a fine impact.

Kind regards

Markus

Just beautiful, Sergio,

Ciao Sergio,
alla fine se ho ben capito hai fotografato il verme di una mela, ottima macro e bellissime ambientazione e composizione; ho fotografato quest'estate una larva molto simile, ma credo fosse un bruco di farfalla o falena (controllerò). Le informazioni fotografiche te le ho inviate via e-mail TN.
Grazie e complimenti
Buona notte
Maurizio

Delicado trabajo Sergio. Ténue luz muy a juego con esas tonalidades amarillas y marrones del conjunto. Bien cortada la foto para admirar mejor la parte más enfocada. Excelente trabajo.
