Spotting

Description:

I believe this caterpillar is one of a moth. It is a deep red coloration, which may signify that it is about to form a chrysalis. I think it may be a different color in an earlier life stage, making it difficult for me to id correctly.

I think you are correct with the life stage of this caterpillar. It looks similar to this one (also not identified): http://bugguide.net/node/view/132861
