Another poor caterpillar parasitized.
@Brian38: Thank you; @Saturniidae27: We have had very hot days here. With so many holes in its body, I guess the caterpillar just dried away.
It looks like the caterpillar shrunk in size because of how many Parasitoid wasp eggs are on it.
Truely amazing Sergio!
