Leaf Shelter - Sawfly or Moth? This leaf shelter used a single leaf, which was rolled and stuck together. Inside, there was a single caterpillar/larva and frass. I think the caterpillar may be a moth - maybe a Tortricid. Or else, maybe a sawfly larva. <br /> <br /> Habitat: Mixed forest/bog<br /> <figure class="photo"><a href="https://www.jungledragon.com/image/81529/leaf_shelter_-_sawfly_or_moth.html" title="Leaf Shelter - Sawfly or Moth?"><img src="https://s3.amazonaws.com/media.jungledragon.com/images/3232/81529_thumb.jpg?AWSAccessKeyId=05GMT0V3GWVNE7GGM1R2&Expires=1759968010&Signature=QBbpIFNswbo8VOsxJ2AxfkMH5%2Bg%3D" width="200" height="156" alt="Leaf Shelter - Sawfly or Moth?
