| Saw this eye-catching caterpillar on a cobble-stone. It's colour is neon-light-green. I wonder what kind of butterfly it will become. Maybe someone can tell me? |

Very good photo!
Beautiful color of the caterpillar indeed!
Perfect details and sharpness!
5* photo!
I can't say in what butterfly specie it will become. I never saw it in Portugal.
Hallo Roland,
schön, Dich auch hier wiederzufinden.
Herzlich willkommen bei TrekNature, ich hoffe Du genießt die vielen schönen Fotos hier, nicht so viel los wie bei TE, klein aber fein.
Deine Raupe ist wunderschön, die Farbe ist richtig schön "krachig" mit guter Tiefenschärfe.
Ich hoffe, Du hast noch viele schöne Bilder auf Lager, bis bald wieder, Gruß

PS: Netter Zufall, habe heute auch eine Raupe eingestellt. Bye.

Nice shot Roland, The light green on the dark BG is very good. Maybee a little bit of overexposure around the mid part of the carterpillar, but is not very important. And still a great picture.

What a nice and interesting Caterpillar that you have well captured ! Yes the green is great! Perhaps I would have cropped dry grass at bottom... Congratulations Roland and thanks for sharing.
Hi Roland,
I'd like to let you know that it's a larva of Green Silver-lines Moth, Pseudoips prasinana (Noctuidae, Chlöephorinae). This species is rather common in places where oaks grow, and imagines are also green with light diagonal streaks, antennae and legs with a touch of pink.
Best regards,
Dmitry
