SUMMARY. The key distinguishes the previously unknown larva of Plectrocnemia brevis McLachlan from larvae of the other two British Plectrocnemia species, P. conspersa (Curtis) and P. geniculata McLachlan. Notes are given on the larval habitat, life cycle and identification of the adult of P. brevis.
