Specimen type: Photograph
Observation notes: Caterpillar? Found this mass of tiny caterpillars decimating the marsh milkweed I 'raise' Monarch caterpillars to butterflies with. This is the first year I've seen them.
My milkweed plants share space with raspberries, day lilies, blackcaps, and a host of other plants. It is a partly cloudy, breezy day. It is probably around 75 degrees. I'm in Menomonie, Wisconsin.
