Dice Moth caterpillar

Rhanidophora sp

Description:

colorful caterpillar with black grass like appendages that move independently, possibly R. ridens

Habitat:

miombo woodland, 1000m

Notes:

I spotted a few of these caterpillars at Namizimu forest reserve. Many of the species look similar and I always thought I was spotting the same species but they were most likely different.
