Finned willow prominent moth caterpillar (Notodonta scitipennis), #7926

Larose Forest

Found on a willow. It looks as if the head of this unusual caterpillar should be at the left of the image, but in fact the head is at the other side of the shot. The adult (moth) retains the colours of the caterpillar: https://pbase.com/laroseforest/image/167902052
