A worldwide community photographing and learning about wildlife
About 5/8 inch long. Found eating live oak leaves in Union county, NC.
Limacodidae, Euclea sp., many species around which cannot separated from only a picture. Range might help. North Carolina is at the border to the range of Euclea delphinii, but Euclea nanina might also be present there, so I would go with Euclea sp. as scientific name.
