Found in dace (Leuciscus leuciscus) gut content from River Teme, Worcestershire, UK these images were taken from a high powered microscope. Can anyone help identify what they have come from? I thought potentially hymenoptera or beetle larvae?
Three lower are frontal sheets from exuviae of Chironomidae (Tribe Chironomini) pupae
Thank you so much Viktor that's so helpful. That would make sense as I've had a lot of chironomid larvae in the guts too.
Viktor, do you think this could be a chironomid hatching from it's pupa?
These were found in juvenile fish guts (fish length less than 8mm) from River Teme. Images taken under high powered microscope. It has biting mouth parts and hairs all over the body, see images.
