Field Notes

Description:

I believe this to be the larvae of a Catocala sp. (Underwing moths). If anybody can narrow it down or thinks it is in another genus, please leave a suggestion. In the fifth photo, you can see how well it camouflages on a stick. In the sixth photo, you can see how large it is.

Habitat:
