Hi All

I noticed these caterpillars making their way down silken threads from one
of
my trees.

Can anyone put a name to them and what they eventually turn into please.

"turn into"? - where wuz youse dragged up then , Eh, - like, wot ah mean.
"Transmogrify", if you jolly well please!, - to change, - as if by magic.
It's plain youse wasn't dragged up in my old alma mater, -
Borstal!.

WOW! "Transmogrify"! Well I was going to use that word but felt it might
require some translation so I just opted for the tried and tested "turn into"
as I felt this was more comprehensible. WOOPS! Sorry....understandable. The
same goes for the possibly more correct "metamorphose into".
I am sorry about that but you see..I have never been to Borstall. Is it a nice
town?

Dear Phill,
They may be the larvae of Tortrix moths, but there are so many types and my
book doesn't show them all.
I have encountered two tortrix caterpillars: one buried into my rose buds,
the other made itself at home eating my Hebes (they web a leaf together, so
you can't see them easily. I believe one of the others is the infamous
Codling moth caterpillar, of apple-munching fame.
I appreciate this is a bit vague, but hope it gives you a starting point.
