Ditch at Nattergal High Fen Wildland absolutely crawling with a new Caddisfly larva for me - a Limnephilus species I think. Their intricate cases seemed to be made from criss-crossed Juncus or Reed stems?

Masses of caddis fly larvae in Little River. Could top ones be Anabolia nervosa who make their cases with sticks to be less swallowable by trout? Never seen one use an Equisetum before! Below Goera? & Agapetus fuscipes?

Masses of #caddisfly larvae up Oxborough Drain: guessing top are Limnephilus? with cute snails embedded, Athripsodes lower left, not sure about lower right?

Despite thick layers of silt, at least River Little Ouse upstream of Hopton has abundant Three-spined Sticklebacks & quite a few Caddis Fly Larvae.

There were roving herds of these Glyphotaelius pellucidus? caddis fly larvaes & a few with sticks on which are maybe Anabolia nevosa?

Could this be a Glyphotaelius pellucidus Caddis Fly larva on the silty bed of the Cut-off Channel?
