@primalshadows: Despite their caterpillar-like appearance and voracious leaf-chewing habits, sawflies actually belong to the order Hymenoptera, making them close biological relatives of bees, wasps, and ants rather than true butterflies or moths. When feeding on foliage, these synchronized larval colonies perform delicate skeletonization by consuming soft interveinal leaf tissue, leaving behind intricate networks of structural veins that resemble fine natural botanical lacework.
