With Neck, Pt. 2 - _TNY_1769S4

Sawfly larvae (Symphyta p.) can quite easily be distinguished from butterfly catepillars by looking at the head. Sawflies have a distinct neck like this one while caterpillars have the head more integrated in the body.

 

I haven't managed to figure out the exact species of this one (there are 824 species in Sweden), but I kind of like the translucent body of it. I found in Åva-Stensjödal in Tyresta National Park in mid-June.
