Alligator and Friends

Following yesterday's gall hunt on oak trees, I thought I'd check out what I could find on sycamore trees.  I ignored the obvious aphids and concentrated on some more interesting insects lurking under the leaves there; the first two of which feed on the aphids.

Top L. A ladybird larva that I have previously blipped (here: https://www.blipfoto.com/entry/3003794620913026379 ).  I think it is about to pupate and will later become the small orange one with 16 white spots.  Orange ladybird, Halyzia sedecimguttata.

Top R. A fearsome predator with a voraceous apetite - the larva of a green lacewing, Chrysoperla Carnea.  I have also blipped this before.  It reminded me of a miniature crocodile or alligator.

Now the identities of those two were already known to me, but not so the caterpillar occupying the lower half of my blip.  I had to look that one up, and if Google has it correct then it is the larval stage of a common moth, the Coxcomb Prominent, Ptilodon capucina.
