A friend of mine took this pic in England, Ramsbury near Marlborough in Wiltshire to be precise. It appears to be a caterpillar of some sort, found on Poplar leaves. Has anyone ever seen this beastie? Thanks!

Hello this caterpillar seems to be the Notodontidae Cerura vinula, but it's not easy to be sure with this back see. Cerura vinula lives on Popular, that's corespond with your observation. Edited by SylvainF on 23-07-2005 08:56 |

Thanks, Sylvain, For the longest time I could not read your reply - I use the blue background and could not see your blue lettering!
