A worldwide community photographing and learning about wildlife
Limacodidae moth
A beautiful caterpillar, which was feeding Spondias plant's leaf. In carelessness, it came in contact with my body and felt electric shock. Need I'd.
Rainy forest habitat.
It was spotted in my garden which is on the foothill of Nagaland state of India.

Hi ashimgogoi.ag,
Wishing you a warm welcome to the Project Noah community! Beautiful first spotting!
Hello ashimgogoi.ag ,
Welcome to Project Noah. This is a site to post wildlife (no pets or zoo photos, please) taken by you.
Your first spotting is beautiful and I am sure someone will give you an ID soon.
For other spottings: In case you already know the name of the species you have photographed...go right ahead and fill in the boxes. The Suggestion box is for others to give you names in case you need help with identification. In case you agree with the suggestion, use the Edit option (under the photo on the screen) and input the information so that the spotting is complete. Also, please fill in where you saw the species...not what books say about where it is found. Each spotting gets its own page! Even if it is the same species taken on different days.
Enjoy the site. Good luck with more spottings!
Caterpillars grow up to be moths or butterflies. These are jointed legged creatures grouped under Arthropoda ...so, I have changed the category for you.
