Hello Vladimir,

this is the caterpillar of Allophyes oxyacanthae. In turkey there is another species of Allophyes, but as far as I know, A. asiatica is not known of Greece.

I send you a picture of mine from this species.

Greetings

Thanks again!

Yes, it is. I got a tachinid larva from it.

All the best, Vladimir
