Abbot's sphinx moth caterpillar (Sphecodina abbottii), 7870

A spectacular caterpillar!! Photographed by Barry in the Backyard Garden and enjoyed by many on Friday morning. These caterpillars are very variable for each instar is different. This is the final instar. The larvae particularly like grape, of which we have an abundance. This is a new species for our moth list.
