Hemlock looper caterpillar (Lambdina fiscellaria), #6888

Warwick Forest

A very small looper sitting on my finger. I find that loopers (or inchworms as they are often called), look like nothing much until you see them up close in a macro shot and then their colours and often intricate patterns are revealed.
