Caterpillar

Description:

Rather colourful caterpillars. Red head. Dark blue and yellow on body. Cannot call it bristly...hairy perhaps is a better term.

Habitat:

Urban residential garden. Host plant Combretum indicum, or Rangoon creeper. I noticed that suddenly there were no leaves except a couple of tattered ones. Lo and behold on the underside were these critters nibbling away.

Notes:

Next day all I saw were cast off skins. Tussock moths maybe?
