Subject: What is this critter? From: grdnpeach@aol.com.mil.org (Grdnpeach) Organization: AOL http://www.aol.com Date: Tue, 05 Oct 99 11:26:52 Message-ID: <MOD$991004.13850@rec.gardens.ecosystems>
There is a small (1/2 inch long) caterpillar on the seedy part of my sunflower.
I looked in my insect book and didn't find one that fit this description: it
has greyish black stripes alongside whitish stripes running the length of the
body. The head/eye area is terra cotta color. What could it be?
