Close-up of a caddisfly larva. This larva has recently emerged from its silken case, and is ventilating its gills. Caddisfly larvae live in fresh water, and typically spin silken cases around themselves, to which they attach small pebbles or pieces of wood, for camouflage and protection. They pupate underwater before emerging as short-lived adults. | |
