Lots of Mire Mourner sawflies (Dolerus madidus) in a rushy meadow at Cali Heath @yorkswildlife.bsky.social reserve today. Males with abdomen orange-banded; females with orange more extensive, over the thorax as well. Things really starting to liven up now. 😃 @ynuorg.bsky.social #symphyta #sawflies

Caterpillars and sawflies are often confused.
Here are some tips!
It's all in the abdominal prolegs! Caterpillars have 4, and sawflies have 7!

Stunning sawfly found today at Ewyas Harold Common - I believe it’s a female Abia nitens? #Sawflies #Herefordshire @andymus.bsky.social

Good to see numbers of Egle ciliata, a willow catkin fly, starting to build around the first flowering Salix...means we'll soon have Andrena bees, Myopa conopid flies, Euura sawflies and loads of other fantastic invertebrates to look for on willows. 🙂 #ento #sawflies @dipteristsforum.bsky.social

Dull today and so quite hard work recording flies and sawflies, but the light was good for photographing Green Tiger Beetles at @yorkswildlife.bsky.social reserve of Allerthorpe Common. #ento #tigers #coleoptera

Dolerus madidus...a common early-spring sawfly associated with Juncus meadows and always one of the first sawflies to appear each year. East Yorkshire today. #sawflies #ento #yorkshiresawflies #ukwildlife #symphyta

An excellent and very educational @norfolknats.bsky.social day looking at sawflies run by @andymus.bsky.social at Sheringham Park. Know your wing veins!

Cimbex luteus (Willow Clubhorn) on Salix in the Howardian Hills today...there can't be many better looking sawfly larvae in the UK! #yorkshiresawflies #sawflies #symphyta #ukwildlife

Poison ivy sawflies (Hymenoptera: Argidae: Arge humeralis) can be found across eastern North America. Larvae feed on poison ivy and related species, and adults take nectar and pollen from a variety of wildflowers. Cambridge Junction Michigan, 27 Jul 2025.

Some larvae I observed in the garden. These are the larvae of Hymenoptera. The larvae usually live on plants and resemble butterfly caterpillars. There are about 800 species of sawflies in Central Europe. I think the larvae’s eyes, or rather their dark outlines, give them a rather cute face.

The larvae of elm argid sawflies (Hymenoptera: Argidae: Arge scapularis) typically feed on elm trees (Ulmaceae: Ulmus spp.). After fattening up and pupating, they emerge as wasp-like adults. Clayton Michigan, 13 Jul 2010.

Calling all #insect peeps! This rather large friend was dogging one of my guests a few days ago. This was where the Churchill River meets Hudson Bay. It looks like a wasp with some truly muscular legs, but I’m not sure and would welcome any expertise. 🌿

The larvae of purslane sawflies (Hymenoptera: Argidae: Schizocerella pilicornis) are leaf miners that feed on common purslane (Portulacaceae: Portulaca oleracea). They tunnel within the leaves and fatten up before pupating into wasp-like adults. Palmyra Michigan, 27 Jul 2010.
