Two Monkey slug caterpillars in different instars. Their lobes (arms) are deciduous so notice on each slug a few lobes are missing. But that's ok because they grow back. Lobes have urticating spines

Slug caterpillars hardly ever show their face. I got lucky in this shot. Pic taken September 12, 2003.
