 Hello forum,

yesterday (25.02.2008) I found the following larvae under a piece of wood in the artificial alder marshland in Hagen (NRW, D), 175 m above nn.

Is there anybody who knows what it is? I think, it might be some larvae of the Coleoptera family Carabidae.

I hope for a closer ID.

Best wishes,

Josef

 Those prongs at the front remind me of the larva of the giant lacewing Osmylus. It feeds on worms around the edges of water.

 Hello John,
I think, you are right. With the correcht information it is easy to find pictures in the internet that are highly comparable.
Thank you,

Josef

I can no longer send private messages (and maybe not receive?), even though my inbox and outbox are not yet full. I write, click "send" and they disappear and never show up in the outbox.
