@Nuwan: Do you know this guy??
Erebidae, Lymantriinae, Olene sp., could be an earlier instar of Olene mendosa, but I am not sure, if the IDs of all the links is really correct. http://footage.shutterstock.com/clip-3062527-stock-footage-hairly-orange-caterpillar-moth-spinning-a-web-olene-mendosa.html
