Sign In to followI love how you titled this J-C lizard ready to run :D
Amazing! Great picture. Learned something from your post! :3
"The larvae are brightly coloured, with tufts of hair-like setae. The head is bright red, the body has yellow or white stripes, with a black stripe along the middle of the back. There are bright red defensive glands on the hind end of the back. Four white toothbrush-like tufts stand out from the back, and there is a grey-brown hair pencil at the hind end." The pictures on the website do not match your specimen exactly, but there are varieties of them as stated in the quote above. Your's has orange stripes, the black stripe down the middle of the back, the four white tufts, and the hair pencils at the end. :) beautiful creature
I appreciate it!
check out the Common Wood Sorrell, scientifically Oxalis acetosella.
Absolutely! I'm learning as I go!
Right, I just had an old field guide that refered to it as yellow swallowtail, I suppose the other is more modern and relevant. I changed it though, Thanks!

!! So I discovered it's identity, with your help of course! It's a ficus pumila. Also known as the climbing fig. If you had not helped me get started I may have never figured it out. So, thank you! Very much appreciate it!
