Thanks. I thought it looked like one, but it was was so odd looking.
Doreen, that yellow mollusc is actually a slug. http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/303... I've spotted it too, but I don't know its ID. I'm curious if someone else can help.
Interesting spotting. I didn't know firefly larvae looked like that!
it's a firefly larva (family Lampyridae)
