Thanks Toko

I was hoping that it might be a nudibranch, but I think that you are right. However, other sea anemones that I've seen are round, so this shape is something a bit different.

Can anyone help with an ID for this caterpillar? Seen at Rondevlei (Cape Town) in late September 2013.

Posted: **Tue Mar 17, 2015 11:58 pm**

The caterpillar is of the genus Bombycomorpha (Lasiocampidae), and there are several similar ones

Bombycomorpha bifascia or B. pallida

Another one for our unidentified caterpillar book

I'm sure that I can find a few more for that special book, Toko

Thanks for your helpful pointers as always

I love the red bugs, arks, lovely capture of Caeneus carnifex

The moth is family Geometridae, but for genus or species

And I had a closer look into the Bombycomorphas, your caterpillar is Bombycomorpha bifascia
