Curious to know what species of Lycium this might be. Any ideas?

 
Lycium speces
Recently found this caterpillar on both L. andersonii and L. exsertum along Hwy 77 SW of Oracle.

 
Thanks for the info!

No
I could still find the bush, but I wasn't even aware that we had more then one Wolf Berry. The cat is still in a loose cocoon.

 
Only if you have the inclination and the time.
I only asked because I'm trying to track these guys down myself. The only host data I could find was a not specific but even knowing that won't get me any closer. Besides, the Desert Museum states there are 15 species in our area! I'll search for "wolfberry" nearby.

Yes, there has been some confusion on what exactly
this is, but we hope Charles' recent work will help clarify things.

 
As you can see from my images, I raised mine
so there is no confusion anymore as to what mine is
