Found this one near the school playground.
Can you help identify this caterpillar?
Ah...the rare and elusive Playgroundus toyus!! You should put it in a hatchery, the butterfly must be truly amazing.
Oh, thanks for that ID! (that Floridian is always on her toes) I will try and post the butterfly picture if I can......

LOL...You nut!
Oh, oh, it has hatched! I don't have a pic of the quilted cocoon but here is the beautiful Playgroundus toyus!
You lucky girl...Is this the first ever hatched in captivity??!! Weed'll go down in history! Gosh, I laughed til I had tears running down my face!
Oh yes it is and a rare one indeed (I am thinking Walmart might be interested).
You guys kill me! You are too funny!
