thanks in advance Ingrid Altmann
This looks to me like a Cladius-larvae Ingrid. For hostplant Filipendula ulmaria ( http://www.brc.ac.uk/dbif/hostsresults.aspx?hostid=2296 ) Cladius pectinicornis is known, but also C. difformis. Looks also like Cladius brullei, but that one is not mentioned.
Hello John,
thank you very much.
I had researched Cladius too but I thought that this species has a brownish head!!?? So I was a little confused.
But I have no idea what else it could be...
Hello Ingrid, See my "kweektopics" of the several Cladius-larvae and watch the variety and change in headcolours.
Find them in this link: https://forum.waarneming.nl/smf/index.php?topic=352513.msg1937618#msg1937618
EDIT:Voor het gemak even enkele van de Cladius-links bij elkaar gezet

Oh yes, really John.
Cladius brullei indeed looks like my larva and I read the host-plant ist Rubus. Filipendula is a Rosacaea too. So it could be possible that it also lives on this plant!!??
