Comments by the Expert Panel on this record:

Comment number:   1
By:   Mervyn Mansell
Comment:   This is probably the larva of a species of Cymothales or Tricholeon. But unfortunately not sufficiently clear. Larvae live in tree holes and on sheltered rock ledges, where they are "sit and wait" predators in dust-filled crevices. Biological notes would be very useful
