SilkwormsImperial Moth Caterpillar in Ontario
Hi bugman,
Here is another picture of an imperial moth caterpillar taken last week in the Killarney provincial park. It seemed to be in need of cooling as it went halfway into the nearest lake before it came back to have this picture taken. It’s length was ~2.5″. Thanks for your nice collection of pictures even though the scientist in me is missing some structure on your site it still was the most helpful site I found in identifying my ‘bug’.

Hi Carsten,
The letters on our individual pages are structured chronologically, and surely that must have some scientific value. We are reminded of that line in one of our favorite movies, “A Zed and 2 Noughts” by Peter Greenaway. The two zoologists are visiting the zoo created by a young girl, and one remarks “Leave it to an innocent to put a spider and a fly together because they are both brown.” His twin brother responds that “You can probably learn more about their behavior that way.” At any rate, we are artists, not scientists and we love your Imperial Moth Caterpillar image.
