Not entirely! I'm traveling at the moment & I don't have any of my field guides with me. I thought it looked a lot like my spotting but maybe not! :)
R u sure? I posted a Variegated Caterpillar on Nov. 9 (Sept. 28 spotting). This caterpillar was in a completely different part of the meadow and had a different look although it still could be this type of fritillary caterpillar. Thanks!
I spotted one recently too! http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/7677957
