Length: 1 cm (approx.). Width: 1 mm (approx.). Appearance: Black w/ white spots, Orange head & rear, Hairy. Antennae length: 1/2 cm (approx.).
This caterpillar was found in the SAS Rainforest, approximately 15 meters up trail, amongst trees, hanging from a fine thread. Another student used a ruler to separate it from the thread, placed it on a small blue journal, and with the caterpillar on the journal, moved approximately 5 meters back down the trail to take a good picture.
My partner and I found this caterpillar in the school rainforest, but neither of us knew what species it was. Please help to identify it!
