Two-tailed Swallowtail
Found this little guy crawling on my house in Bozeman Montana. Any ideas what type of caterpillar this is?
After researching on line and in project noah. I Think the most likely candidate is the Two-tailed Swallowtail - Papilio multicaudata.
Two possible candidates.Two-tailed Swallowtail - Papilio multicaudataWestern Tiger Swallowtail - Papilio rutulusI am afraid I cannot distinguish between the two.
Nice pic!
