Specimen type: Photograph
Observation notes: I can outside this morning and it was alive but on the ground. We live about one mile from the Great Smoky Mountains National Park in Cocke County Tennessee. It has two small white pieces that were retractable in the bottom of its abdomen, multiple orangish spots along its abdomen. We have flowers close to where it was that are in bloom, including been balm rose if Sharon and roses. I have found horn worm caterpillars in years past in my garden in my tomatoes but I do not have a garden this year.
