DanielePralong, Thank you! Ava T-B, I didn't notice the date that was given.I have edited it now, Thank you for pointing it out! Namitha, Thanks. :) NuwanChathuranga, Thank you for helping! But I don't think they both look the same. The pattern in the body looks different.

Hi Meri, Beautiful spotting!!
Ava T-B
Hi Merineliza, The time stamp on the photo says it was taken July 31, 2011, but you have put the "spotted on date" the same as today (December 14, 2013). It is very important for researchers using this site, that the information we give them is accurate. If you took this lovely picture in 2011, please "edit this spotting" and correct the date. Thanks.

Hi Merineliza! I have relocated this caterpillar to the Arthropods category for you.
