- Explanation: I'm not thinking about any name for this but you could use the latin name between brackets Endoxyla leucomochla (underline separately both words if possible, the first one with a capital and the scond without) you could possibly try 'endoxyle' too though I have no reference for it as such. see http://www-staff.mcs.uts.edu.au/~don/larvae/coss/leuco.html -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2002-03-27 12:35:35 (GMT) -------------------------------------------------- I meant write : \"witchery grub\" (Endoxyla leuchmochla) |
