I Have no idea what this is, can anybody help me?
I guess i an insect? right?

Last News. I was searching and looks like this is a Monkey Slug (Hag Moth Larva) - Phobetron pithecium. They are generally solitary feeders and damage to folage is minor. The "string" reaction to contact with urticating setae is, for most people, usually mild and short-lived.

I have no idea either.. you are scarring me !.... Are you telling me that thing is moving ?
Btw nice pciture !.. very sharp

Hello Gabriel,
what is it man? I'm not talking about the creature you got yet. I mean what are these beautiful colours together and what a beautiful composition you got! I like the colours a lot. Such interesting and strange subject also. Well seen and taken wonderfully. This one is exceptional. I thought that it would be from Mars! Do you know "invasion of the body snatchers" It reminded me that movie.
See you soon...

Hi Gabriel, Great closeup and colour. What an interesting species of insect. I've never seen anything like it before. I would also love to know what it is. Janice/Canada

Hello Gabriel,
This is a great shot! I love the colours here (both the BG and insect). Picture has great POV and framing, perfect details.
I like it a lot!

As for the ID. This reminds me a caterpillar of Hag Moth (Phobetron pithecium), but I don't know if they can be found in Bolivia.

Hi Gabriel,
Oh my dear, you find the most amazing creatures around the rain forest! Maybe you have discovered a new species, that later will be named a "mendeza"..?
Great DOF and super colours!
Greetings,
Pablo -
