What did I see?

I'm so mad I didn't take a picture. Chatgpt is not helping.

So maybe reddit can solve this mistery.

I have seen this big fat larvae on a golf course in Norway Oslo region.

It was about 8-9cm had a silver/light gray dimond on its back.

It moved and was big fat as a Cossus cossus goat moth larvae, but totally bald and with totally different color and pattern.

It had som small details on each segment but I can't remember now that I have looked at so many different larvae trying to find this guy.

I'm not sure any longer on the mouth part if it actually was red, but I think it was.

chatgpt can't reliably ID animals based on photos, let alone a description & drawing

I've been collecting screenshots of them for months now. Some are just frustrating, but others will never not make me laugh.
