Abstract

The larva of Siobla ruficornis (Gimmerthal, 1834) is redescribed on the basis of specimens collected in East Finland (PS:Heinävesi) on 14 August 1999. Four larvae were found on Prunus cerasus and one on Rubus idaeus. Malaise (1932) briefly described ornaments of a larva found on Epilobium angustifolium in NE Asia. The habitus of Finnish larvae conforms closely to Malaise’s description. Further characteristics are added here and drawings of mouthparts and colour picture of larva are given.
