Utetheisa pulchelloides

Description:

Red, cream and black moth as well as larvae found in same tree. (Heliotropium foertherianum)

Habitat:

Heliotropium foertherianum Tree on the sea shore in Eastern Efate Vanuatu

Notes:

There were many moths flying around the leaves of the tree and I found over 8 larvae under the leaves. I would say it is 100% that the larvae I have photographed are the larval stage of the moth.
