We unlinked the dead caterpillar
from these other three and moved it to FRASS. At BugGuide we like to reserve the LINK feature for images of the same individual. Since that image was taken on a different day, it is unlikely that it is the same individual that is in these other three shots, so we would not LINK them.
Wow! Feel like we're trying to explain all the inner workings of BugGuide in one crash course. Don't feel that you've done anything wrong. There are just a number of things to get used to as join the BugGuide family, and it takes time. And once again, Welcome! Your images are a great addition to the guide.
