Kitty, did you get the message that contained the following? 

<<   He describes the lily weevil (Agasphaerops nigra) as 'The larvae are 
minute, whitish, legless grubs with chestnut-brown heads.  They burrow into the 
lily stem and bulb'.  The red lily beetle it is not but he adds this: 'The 
larva is a humpbacked, dirty yellow grub with a dark head, repulsively covering 
itself in dark, slimy excrement.'  Sounds like a handsome devil, huh?  Nothing 
else listed that would seem possible.>>
