Hello! I moved your caterpillar to the group Arthropods for you. I also blanked the scientific name because that is reserved for the Latin name assigned to the species. (I moved the name you had there to "Notes". If you don't know the scientific name, it's not a problem, just leave it blank. But remember to tick the box that says "Help me ID this species" :-)
