Hi all,
Any help identifying this aquatic larvae would be great!
Found as part of an aquatic sample from a lake in south Wales in April
It's 1.1mm long and has a distinct head (left) and a laterally flattened tail (right). It has the appearance of rings along it's abdomen but I think that's just due to dehydration during preservation. The closest I've come to a positive ID is Scathophagidae - does anyone have any better ideas?
