Description
I went out into the yard to check the roses & see if I could catch the Leaf Cutter bees at work...instead I found half a dozen more Allantus viennensis larva.
LOL! As soon as I touched the tip of the leaf set this one was on it uncurled and tried it's best to run away.
NOTE:
I'd like to extend my sincere appreciation to both those involved with this image getting a DD,
and to all those who
it &/or follow my work as a result, my deep thanks.

They're voracious though.
They have the bad habit of stripping all the leaves off the poor rose bushes.
and thanks for more

Thank you for information. Luckily I didn't see signs of their activity in my garden.

They do have a certain beauty of their own & are impressive wasp mimics as adults,
but I don't like the damage they do to the roses.
