help with caterpillar ID please
Hello, I found this big fellow munching on an azalea in my yard this
past weekend. Can anyone help me with ID? The closest thing I've seen on the internet so far is the Imperial Moth larvae. I've been watching it evey day since finding it. I love these things!!! Pics at http://www.unc.edu/~uepmeg/caterpillar/ Thanks, Eileen |

On 9/19 in alt.binaries.pictures.animals a well-known nature photographer,
John White, posted a picture of an Imperial caterpillar. His is almost olive, but how does it compare to yours, otherwise? John is very precise in his identifications, he doesn't guess. laurie (Mother Mastiff) "E Gregory" wrote in message ...
