Hi,

I have photographed this caterpillar in February, 20km West of Paris (litter).
I think this is probably a Noctuidae.
Deciduous forest mainly chestnut trees and oaks.
Any idea of the genus/species?
Thanks for any help, cheers,
FRV

Probably Agrochola (Xyleninae)
While others can't climb, using infinite pains,
I, gravity turning to jest,
Ascend, with all ease, perpendicular planes,
Rough or smooth, just as pleases me best.
