Def a sawfly, think Nematus pavidus - lesser willow sawfly?

Yeah that looks correct, many thanks.

I spent 15 minutes a couple of days ago cutting off the branches which had these on and putting them in my brown garden recycling bin. They can munch away to their hearts content in there.
They don't seem to have reappeared on the willow so all good so far

They can really go to work, reminded me of this pic I took of my silver birch getting stripped a couple of summers back.
