Baltimore Snout - Hypena baltimoralis
41.662942, -79.142796, Warren County, Pennsylvania, USA
June 25, 2012
Size: 5.4 mm
Weight: 0.001 grams
Collected and maintained on Red Maple.

Unfortunately many of these caterpillars 'matured' in June, which was our busiest collection time, when I didn't have time to take pictures of any caterpillars except for the ones we collected each day. Consequentially a few of them (like this one) only got a single initial photograph taken. They were ID'ed after the photograph was taken, but I thought early instar pictures might be helpful.
