2003 Notodonta ziczac (Pebble Prominent)


Notodontidae, Notodontinae. Final Length: ~35mm
The English common name for the members of this family, the "Prominents" refers to the fact that the caterpillars usually have strange postures and protuberances along their length. This species even has unusual colouration for a caterpillar, but presumably results in potential predators thinking that they are not food.
