5-10 caterpillars of the color you see on the photo were sitting on a Blue Lupine (Lupinus pilosus) plant in Jouhtas mountain, Crete, Greece. The altitude was 700 meters.
Oh, so it was unidentified! You updated it very quickly :-) All good then.
Hi Thanasis Samaras! Apologies if my suggestion is redundant. This had somehow appeared on the Unidentified list. Great spotting!
Thank you very much for the suggestion! I'd been trying for a long time to find the species!
