CARL'S COOL CATERPILLAR

As a fellow lover of Lepidoptera I thought I would send you these images. This magnificent creature is called Citheronia regalis or the Hickory Horned Devil and is the largest north American species, and it emerges into the Regal Moth.



As far a I know it doesn't have any Cryptozoological significance and I am sure you have seen them before but you cant deny they are truly spectacular and well worthy of a "butchers". I personally believe the actual moth is relatively mundane compared to its larval form. Looking forward to the WW.
Regards Carl.
