Syssphinx (Sphingacampa) hubbardi
Green Caterpillar
I found several of these bright green caterpillars under mezquite trees.
Bright green color. The horns in the middle of the body were a bright shiny metalic silver color, looked like aluminun horns. The rear end like a flower. Very pretty. Wonder what it turned into. I put it on some orange leaves to take the photos.
You are so right Diane! Thanks for the ID. But I dont believe I have ever seen the moth, Will be looking though.
