What does....

..."moved to guide" mean? Have we definately ID'd it?

Unicorn Caterpillar Moth Larva?

Not positive there aren't other similar looking species, but compare to images here. I'm pretty sure it's something in the Schizura genus.

We would agree with Schizura

but would slide down one species to S. ipomoeae, with that striped head and well defined hump on A5. In the guide here, just as you thought! Click on edit to see how we changed your text. Feel free to change it back to whatever you would like.

Thanks, everyone!

Great info about creating links. Thanks! And I am glad for the caterpillar info too. Looked again later for a cocoon at the site where I took the pic, but couldn't find one.

Ah! but we can't let you stop learning here!

Can you tell John is a schoolteacher?!
Next lesson 1) Click on your name at the bottom of your image or your comment. That will take you to your contributer page, which you can edit and tell us much more about yourself!

Next Lasson 2) Click on TAG ALL under your image. Then Click on your 1792 link. That will take you to S. ipomoeae (and it will take your tagged images with you.) Click on the tab that says IMAGES and you should get another link that says "Move tagged Images". Click there and your images will be moved to the guide on the S. ipomoeae page!

Lynette - thanks....

...very similar, but a few differences. Also...how did you get the link to be the word "here"? I'd appreciate that info, as I am always wanting to be more html literate. Thanks.
