Moved- Not Hemileuca but Coloradia
Moved from
Buck and Io Moths
.
Based on your location and the time of year, this could either be
Coloradia doris
or
C. luski
. I am inclined to say
C. doris
because the distribution shown in Tuskes et al (1996) seems to put
C. doris
at your location, but
C. luski
only barely, also the larval appearance reminds me of
C. doris
, but these two species have very similar larvae and it is difficult for me to make an accurate determination from this angle.
C. doris
has been reported from pinyon pine.

I've added another image from another angle. Does this help? Thanks!
