Red-headed pine sawfly larvae
Red-headed pine sawfly larvae
  • ... that larvae of the red-headed pine sawfly (pictured) are gregarious, and when they have defoliated a tree, move as a group to a neighbouring one? Source: "Older larvae eat the entire needle, and if complete defoliation occurs, groups of larvae will move to the nearest acceptable food source and continue feeding."
