1cm long resident for at least two days between the door seals of our
car. Presumably fell from either ash or sycamore tree under which car is
normally parked. (Rochdale, UK)
In resting position, very flat; when disturbed, quite active moving in
ripples down the body.
I'd draw your attention to an upward protuberance at the rear of the
body, just under 1mm long.
I was tempted by some of the less moth species - but apart from the
colouration, it reminds me of some fly larvae, but they are usually
round, and not flat as in resting position.
Sorry about the quality of the photos, I just can't get that close, so
these are blow ups from minute image.
Thanks
Mike

Some newsgroup contributors appear to have confused
the meaning of "discussion" with "digression".
