 Any ideas on this?- suspect it is a hoverfly larvae- about 6mm long on an aphid infested Acer tree taken yesterday South coast UK.

Thanks Brian V.

 H4ello Brian,
Yes, it is a hoverfly larva from the Syrphini.
I think this might be the larva of Syrphus ribesii, which occurs in different color forms. They feed on aphids.

I can no longer send private messages (and maybe not receive?), even though my inbox and outbox are not yet full. I write, click "send" and they disappear and never show up in the outbox.
