Gumleaf Skeletoniser

Wau.. thank you dhobern... That is great information!!

This is the caterpillar of the gumleaf skeletoniser (Uraba lugens). Each time this caterpillar sheds its skin, it keeps the empty head capsule from the previous stage attached to its head. I think you can see the head from six previous stages on this one. See http://www.flickr.com/photos/dhobern/434... for another view.

He looks like a muppet!! :)

Thanks..

Agreed,Alice---looks like a catepillar with a booger in its hair.

Wow! that is unusual!
