Yesterday I swept this yellow and pink/purple larvae from sedge fen on the edge of Burton Pond under alder and willow. It's almost 25 mm long but I think it must be a micro. Any help much apprecaited! It has four pairs of prolegs at the back.

Mystery caterpillar from Burton Pond
I didn't get any repsonses to this one so I guess no one had a clue. Wasn't expecting to rear it through but it's emerged as the Nb pyralid Nascia cilialis!
