Hyposmocoma saccophora larvae. Note the three larvae sheltering in one hole just above the waterline. Just below them (arrow) is a pupated larva in a case below the waterline, where it will remain for several weeks before the adult moth emerges. Inset: a sketch of a larva emerging from its case, the lid of which is retractable.
