Date

May 17, 2012

Description

We thought this huge polytrichum with 12mm long leaves and 10cm long stems might be P. commune but a cross section revealed no "C" shaped cells. Further investigation has pointed towards P. formosum. The lamellae are in about 30 rows and are 4-5 cells high. The cells of the margin (the teeth) extend 3 rows out from the lammelae. The cells in the teeth are about 8um wide.

This was growing in a very moist shady area. There were sporophytes present and I really wish I had collected one to see if it was sulcate.. but there were so few sporophytes that it did not feel right to collect them.

Larva 4mm long. 1st two images are 20 x; 3rd image is 10x.

Leaf-folding larvae on Quaking Aspen/Populus tremuloides leaves. In most but not all cases, the fold is next to a roughly circular eaten area. In most, but not all, cases, a single leaf will have folds on two sides of the leaf.

Too small to roll over to count prolegs, though it looks like six in first image, hence sawfly larvae and not caterpillar. I'll check back to see how they grow...
