Hallo Roma
A lovely caterpillar with clear and colourful details. The long hairs and black spiky paws are very prominent. The hairy details on the plant are also well captured and seen. I am glad you could identify your caterpillar, as I had a difficult task looking for the identity of the one I posted recently and is still nameless. Thanks for sharing this striped beauty. Best regards.
