Spotting

Description:

I've been watching this caterpillar since the last Wednesday, always in the same place and until now, I can not find any images that allow me to identify it. Anyone know at least its genus for help me with your identification? Thanks in advanced!

Habitat:

I found this caterpillar in the grass on the edge of Atlantic Forest, in Parque Sao Vicente, Petropolis, Rio de Janeiro. The first four pictures are from today, but the picture #5 is from Wednesday, when I saw it for the first time.

Notes:

The town of the coordinates (lat: -22.538477, long: -43.228207) that I used for search, is not DUQUE DE CAXIAS, as reports the search map tool of this page, but PETRÓPOLIS, as shown here:
