Setora nitens
Another stinging caterpillar. They have strong sting at your skin!
Lowland green area - savanna like ecosystem (old agricultural area) dominated by Penisetum sp.
I do rotate the pics 90 right.
Oh I'm sorry bayucca and KarenL :( too late to read suggestion and comments. Now you can see the name appears! Thaks so much bayucca ... :)
Really lovely!
Now that bayucca has identified this for you please could you go into edit & update the common & scientific names, & also add the reference link. That way we can remove this from the "unknowns" list. Thanks Achmmad!
Thanks all! :) Yes Nopayahnah, although they have sting me several time since I was kid, I don't even know yet their name until I cam to this amazing community.
These stinging caterpillars are all so beautiful. I didn't know caterpillars stung until joining PNoah; very educational
