Not Quite a Toadflax Cat - Euchloe

Not Quite a Toadflax Cat - Euchloe
Bergheim Rural Community, Saskatoon and Area, Saskatchewan, Canada
August 19, 2018
Saw a handful of these on a weed along the Bergheim Community School and recreation area fence. This Caterpillar was the biggest and most colouful - the others looked to be the same type but were darker and smaller and had less spots.

It is similar to the Toadflax Caterpillar but the strips are different and it does not have the dark strip on its top.
