Red-crossed button slug caterpillar (Tortricidia pallida), #4653

I re-found the button slug caterpillar from Thursday, as well as another one, both on basswood trees.

Super image again Christine. You are certainly making us/me aware of the many different little creatures inhabiting our region. I might have just stepped on this one, either not seeing it or thinking it to be a or part of a leaf.

I have seen this one, Christine, but did not get a shot of it as beautiful as this one. Very nice!
