Moth Caterpillars of the Reveler Conservation Area

Quite often, moth caterpillars (larvae)are far more spectacular than the moths they become. Not always true of course, especially for the giant silk moths, but in many cases it is so. The caterpillars are frequently beautifully coloured, amazingly patterned, and often uniquely shaped.

Two good sources for help with identification are Tom Murray's Pbase moth caterpillar galleries: https://pbase.com/tmurray74/moth_caterpillars and Bug Guide: http://bugguide.net/node/view/15740
