We found this bug next to the front door in Rockport, Texas. Can you tell us what it is?
Signature: I don’t care
Pipevine Swallowtail Caterpillar
Dear I don’t care,
This is the caterpillar of a Pipevine Swallowtail. It is a very distinctive caterpillar and it is highly unlikely that it would be confused with any other caterpillar except possibly its close relative the Polydamus Swallowtail.
