Submitted by: Lizette@liebold.com
Specimen type: Photograph
Observation notes: My grandson and I discovered this beautiful catepillar on a fushia bush on our balcony and are so hoping to see it through its metamorphosis to a butterfly or moth. "Spike" has been rather lazy and we are hoping s/he survives the predicted rainstorm.
