HornwormsWhat is it?
Hi Bugman!
This is probably nothing extraordinary, however, I have never seen it before. Any Idea what it might be? It was in the lawn near my backdoor. We are having a temperature change from 76 to 60 degrees today. I don’t know if that made him come out or not. I live in North Texas. Let me know what it is if you get a chance, Thanks,
Terry
Hi Terry,
All insects are extraordinary. This isn’t a new species for us as we have several photos of adult Pink Spotted Hawkmoths, Argias cingulata, but these are the first Caterpillar images we have received. We are thrilled to post them. They feed on morning glories.
