I saw unusual caterpillar on my soursop leaf yesterday.
The look of the unusual caterpillar. |
The look from above. |
The caterpillar seems to have few horns on its top and bottom part. So far, it is not moving at all the time I snap pictures of it.
I should check the name of the caterpillar later. At this moment, let it here for future reference.
Update:
It is green horned caterpillar. All based from the pictures that I took👆. Definitely it is not an easy task identifying such insect based on taken pictures only.
As such task would falls under the expertise of Entomologist that study Entomology [1]. Which something I might need to consider later for professional services.
Entomology (from Ancient Greek ἔντομον (entomon), meaning 'insect', and -λογία (-logia), meaning 'study of') is the scientific study of insects, a branch of zoology [1].
