Sawfly is the common name for insects belonging to suborder Symphyta of the order Hymenoptera. Sawflies are distinguishable from most other hymenopterans by the broad connection between the abdomen and the thorax, and by their caterpillar-like larvae. The common name comes from the saw-like appearance of the ovipositor, which the females use to cut into the plants where they lay their eggs. Large populations of certain sawfly species can cause substantial economic damage to forests and cultivated plants.
Sawflies are a group of largely phytophagous insects. The overall group is paraphyletic, but the name is still in common use, and treated as a suborder, though it likely will be phased out in future classifications. These superfamilies are regarded as the most primitive taxa within the Hymenoptera (some going back 200 million years), and one of the taxa within the Symphyta gave rise to the suborder Apocrita (wasps, bees, and ants - this group is considered monophyletic). In the opinion of many experts, the most likely sister taxon to the Apocrita is the family Orussidae, the only symphytan group which is parasitic.
This is a brief video showing sawfly larvae and adults.
This eyewear is the best that I've used. Not only do they offer UV A/B/C sun protection, they're lightweight, stylish and provide distortion free vision. The Sawfly eyewear is issued to the US Military and it offers impressive ballistic protection. In this review you will actually see me shoot these glasses with 6-shot from a 12g shotgun at just 5 metres!! So they are perfect for shooting, hunting and general range work. The deluxe packs include 3 different types of lenses and are for sale at Cleaver Firearms for just $109!

Sawfly
These look like caterpillars, but my research shows that they're sawfly larvae. Their flipping movement when they sense motion is pretty distinctive.
http://www.FaliaReviews.com - Here I thought I'd show you guys some of the different eyewear I use at the range since I have small face & my options have been pretty limited. My Sawflys from Revision Military came in the "Sawfly Deluxe Shooters Kit," and their size Small fits me perfectly. I love that I can shoot Pepper, my 12 gauge shotgun, without worrying about the Sawflys flopping around on my face. My Oakley Fives (the smallest Women's Oakleys available) are a little too big for me, so I have to wear a hat to hold them in place. The Sawflys have several different lens options that can quicky be swapped out on the Sawfly frame, and they also have an Rx Carrier for prescription lenses that easily snaps onto the Sawfly nosepiece. (The Rx Carrier is sold seperately from Revision and is ap...
If I lost you
If you only knew
That I would miss you
Like the stars above
If you needed me
You know I'll be right here
'Cause you can count on me
Like the air you breathe
Just keep holding on
You are the
Wonder of my world
I'm somehow lost for words
You are the the life
Within my veins
My love for you remains
In my heart
You are my world
You are my world
When I think of you
Everything
We've been through
There's so much to see
Don't give up on me
Just keep holding on
You are the
Wonder of my world
I'm somehow lost for words
You are the the life
Within my veins
My love for you remains
In my heart
You are my world
You are my world
Never thought
We'd come this far
You know there's
A place for us
All this time
I've seen you you try
So just keep holding on
'Cause you are the
Wonder of my world
I'm somehow lost for words
You are the the life
Within my veins
My love for you remains
In my heart
You are my world
