cerogama feeds on Basswood, Tilia
but you should be able to see what is around when you find one.

We've been wondering if this might be Catocla cerogama
Any chance he can raise it? You can see some questions on a somewhat similar cat here

Capture of Caterpillar
The caterpillar is somewhere out in the woods but if we see another one we will try to rear it. Any idea of their host plant?
