Elm sawfly (Cimbex americanus)

Larose Forest

The larva of a large stingless wasp, this one feeding on Speckled Alder. They come in various colours but mostly this year I have seen them in shades of light pink and a dark salmon pink.

An excellent macro, so clear, sharp and well-lit. Each caterpillar species you show has a unique and often interesting pattern of spots, stripes and colours, this one certainly so.
