The following images were taken of a band of travelling slug moth caterpillars during our overnight WGNSS trip to Council Bluff Lake in mid-August of this year. Many thanks to Eva Weideman who collected these from her home hunting grounds in Franklin County, MO and brought them for us to observe and photograph.
Euclea delphinii (spiney oak slug moth)
Isochaetes beutenmuelleri (Beutenmueller’s slug moth/spun glass slug moth)
Parasa chloris (smaller parasa)
Parasa indetermina (stinging rose moth)
