The next pictures are from the Community Web. I'm not too good with the micro mode on my camera.
These are LTS eggs.

The next pic. is the tiny cats. These are larger than the ones under the cut sections of passiflora leaf in my yard right now.

Here are the leaves being used by the LTS. I thought LTS only used legumes as a host. These leaves are passiflora amythistina, a native of Brazil.

Here is a larger LTS cat. I think all skipper cats look similar.
