sealord > This hover fly larva and cocoon was found by Harvey Adams in a somewhat fetid upper-shore tide pool in the splash zone at Portelet on Guernsey's west coast on the 1 August 2008. These larvae are known as rat tailed larvae because of the 'tail' which is actually a breathing tube. These larvae develop in pools with an abundance of decaying organic matter so the breathing tube is required to obtain oxygen from the atmosphere. Entomologist Dr. Charles David of the Guernsey Biological Records Centre http://www.biologicalrecordscentre.gov.gg/ wrote that as "they are in a rock pool they are more likely to be Eristalinus aeneus, which is common round the coast." Dr. Charles David pointed me to this link for more information: http://www.hoverfly.org.uk/viewtopic.php?p=391&sid=8fe30d9fbd69f74e7eff1b9575f6c547 File No. 010808 6273 ©RLLord fishinfo@guernsey.net
