Pyralid moth caterpillar (Oreana unicolorella), #5767

Reveler Conservation Area. A very small caterpillar which was resting on this leaf under a fine webbing, as many caterpillars do. No common name for this species as far as I know. It is in the Pyralidae family of moths.

Excellent close up and blends in well. ~V

Excellent close up work. Judging by the leaf vein, this must be quite small. Vote.

It's so tiny it almost looks like a vein in the leaf. Great detail in this close up. V.

Super closeup, I think the head looks like that of an unusually colored cat ;-). V.

riveting, as the leaf reminds of a sat photo of rice fields...amazing interaction with the apparently aware caterpillar too.
