Welcome to Project Noah! This is a great community and I hope you enjoy it here. If you have not done so already, please take a few minutes to read through our FAQ page. You will find general guidelines for posting as well as information on other features of the PN website. Since you know the identity of your caterpillar in this spotting, it is important to include the scientific name, and a relevant online resource (when possible). The text sections of the spotting are for describing your experience (Description), the habitat in which you found the organism (Habitat), and any other information you wish to include (Notes). The additional information makes your spottings even more valuable to other users, as they can learn from what they read and see from your spotting. Happy spotting!
