platypusninja96 Posted February 9, 2015 Report Posted February 9, 2015 So I was looking through my tub of substrate and breaking apart the wood and I found two little larvae. The pictures (if they work) are 40 x magnifications. The long skinny one has a little hook on its posterior end and looks like a really little longhorn beetle. Any info is greatly appreciated Quote
hardshell Posted February 10, 2015 Report Posted February 10, 2015 nice microscope! i think its nematoads Quote
Ratmosphere Posted February 10, 2015 Report Posted February 10, 2015 I am not sure what it is but the picture is sick! Quote
AlexW Posted February 11, 2015 Report Posted February 11, 2015 Wait, nematodes don't have legs! (see pic #3) The third pic is a scarab grub. The first two I don't know since I can't see the head. Quote
Hisserdude Posted February 11, 2015 Report Posted February 11, 2015 The first pic might be some fly larva? Just a crazy guess. The 3rd pic is definitely some kind of scarab or stag beetle larva. Hope this helps! Quote
