Amphion floridensis - Nessus Sphinx

Hingham MA

Collected as first instar caterpillar from grape in Wompatuck State Park, Hingham MA, June 29th. I have only found grown caterpillars once - it is much easier to find the earlier instars as they spend the day on the grape leaves themselves rather than in the leaflitter below.
