To be technical (Harold's fault! :)) its a caterpillar that during the summer of 2007 appeared in my salad (delivery) and I've been in court (they sued) for more than 2 years now. No, not a sandworm :)

You're sure it's not a sandworm? Ok, well, can't help ya then... Though googling "salad worm" gave some odd results.

This is actually not a worm, but the so Southern Wormleaf (Artemisia ablatum) which, when it's hot, rolls it leaves up and looks similar to a worm. Additionally, fresh leafs, when covered in Balsamico or other slightly acidic substances, start to wriggle a bit. It is a great addition to fresh salads, due to it's strong, peppery note. Can I use the picture you posted for the respective wikipedia article?
Don't attribute to stupidity what can be equally well explained by buerocracy.

You might want to try one of these[^], there are too many for me to be arsed with. Besides, you are more familiar with the beastie than I!

You might want to check who you host images with!!! :D I clicked the link once and all was well, your salad etc. I clicked it again after Chris suggested it was a catepillar and I got dumped on some site called Streamate with some semi-risque pictures and then a pop-up appeared - "Jasmin: Amateur Web cam Sex"!!! :omg: :-O Not that it bothers me, of course, man of the world and all that, but you probably don't want to use a service like that for your more professional or family oriented picture hosting needs :) Now go and get yourself a Photobucket account. Good lad. :thumbsup:

I know I looked at the photo when it was first posted and now when I return to it the site is blocked. Which means someone is watching me! :rolleyes:

besides the apology, could you at least edit a warning into the original post?

Looks like it may be a cabbage looper[^] in the early larva stage. We have them here in the states and they absolutely love lettuce. Best Wishes, -David Delaune
I think I'll e approaching an Insect Specialist(?) during next week, both to identify the damned thing along with getting him to testify for me. Cheers in every case, I'll certainly mention it to whomever I end up talking to regarding the caterpillar.
