I think it's some Orgya sp.

Another unidentified caterpillar from the Karelian Isthmus:


Recently I met a similar caterpillar 2 m from Primorskoe highway (also Karelian Isthmus) on a young maple tree. I sat and ate his leaf.
Only in my specimen, the tufts of bristles on top of the rear segments are reddish, and on the sides the same whitish.
It turned out to be similar to Orgyia antiqua (it has many subspecies and different food plants).

Orgyia - how will it be in Russian?

Well, this one was shot around the same place. In the Yappel area.

22.08.2006 21:44, Pavel Morozov

This is not Orgyia antiqua!!!!

THIS IS CALLITEARA PUDIBUNDIS, the redtail. Also from the volnyanok family. Look carefully at the caterpillar and understand why it was so named.

And Orgyia antiqua in translation will be - "ancient orgy". Perhaps the name is given due to the fact that many males can fly on a wingless female (I myself saw this at the dacha). Well, they mate.

But the picture shows a different wave-Redtail (Calliteara pudibunda)

Hmm, very curious. Although I always heard the option "volnyanka antique" and wondered what was so antique about it. It turns out, that's what... smile.gif

By the way, I found another funny Russian name for this species: shamefaced woolpaw. smile.gif

I named Orgyia antiqua my instance, not the one in the topic.
My caterpillar does not have a pronounced red "tail" and is very similar to the images of this caterpillar on the web.

Please help me! A terrible curiosity led me to your website today, dear caterpillar experts! This is my first time here! There is a photo of the caterpillar and there is no name for it. And it is also unclear what will come out of her after pupation and whether it is possible to do this at home (I have not yet ventured, because I do not know the conditions of her further residence and nutrition).
Here is a link to her photo: http://foto.mail.ru/mail/krol75/64/66.html.
And also one more thing: http://foto.mail.ru/mail/krol75/64/69.html.
Thank you to everyone who responds!!!
Yes, I completely forgot!!! Just wondering: a bunch of small caterpillars on the
http://foto.mail.ru/mail/krol75/64/105.html "
is it some other species, or is it the same, just small?"
Looking forward to hearing back! I will be glad for every response! :- )
If someone can tell me the addresses of sites with a detailed classification of these creatures (and there are any, ktstat?) - I will be doubly happy! I want to know who lives next to us...

http://foto.mail.ru/mail/krol75/64/105.html - it seems to me that these are the caterpillars of some whitefly (family Peridae, for example, cabbage whitefly-Pieris brassicae)

I doubt it, the bears are more hairy, the body is almost invisible. For example, these are: user posted image

Hmmm, then I'm completely lost... But it's more of a moth than a day butterfly? Or can it be daytime?

Now I put her picture.

A caterpillar, of course. It is very similar to the peacock eye (Saturniidae) of the genus Saturnia, but due to its unclear size, it is difficult to say exactly. Most likely, Saturnia pavonia L. or the small night peacock's eye.

definitely the lesser peacock's eye (Saturnia pavonia). Feed the pear leaves, let them pupate, hold them in the refrigerator on the bud of the door for about three months, pull them out in the heat, but keep the cocoon on the windowsill from the shady side - a butterfly will appear.

Unfortunately, I don't have it anymore. She ran away from me last summer. Pitifully. I only saw this one at my dacha once.

They don't like direct sunlight, sissies. At least in my experience.

At first glance, it looks like the following (it's hard to be more precise without knowing the size and age):

Изображение_374.јрд -Angulose moth (Ennomos) sp., most likely E. autumnaria Wernb. (autumn), but possibly also E. alniaria L. (alder)

Изображение_340.јрд -sickle-wing (Drepana sp.), possibly D. cultraria F. (beech) or D. lacertinaria L. (sukholistnaya)

and what to feed her, and how long to wait until the butterfly appears? The child caught, and wants to bring out a butterfly...
[attachmentid()=11470]
The caterpillar is 6-7cm long, brown with yellow-white dots along the entire length of the body on the sides, these light dots are bordered by darker ones. 1 horn of burgundy color. Found near Kiev, in a field, on ordinary grass, today (17sent) near only oaks.
Does not want to eat oak leaves, what should I feed her?

This is the bedstraw hawk moth Hyles gallii. Link http://tpittaway.tripod.com/sphinx/h_gal.htm

caterpillar eats bedstraw. However, your instance may have already crawled to pupate. Create conditions for it - Put sawdust or sphagnum moss (if available) in the garden. Keep in the conditions of a glazed balcony for about three weeks, then move the pupa to the refrigerator, in the warmest place, somewhere on a shelf. In the middle of winter, you can pull out. Keep it on the windowsill, it will come out after a while (unless it is infected with rider or tahini).
This hawk moth can hatch in the fall - in September-October.
In general, the content of hawk moth caterpillars on our forum has already been repeatedly written, so the topic is already chewed, look at similar topics on our forum.

If you will allow me (so as not to open a separate topic), take a look at this photo: Primorye, on the nettle. Probably something banal, but anything can happen.

Not so banal. This is the Arcte coerula scoop. It is widely distributed in Southeast Asia. It is also found in Polynesia. It comes to us from the northern edge of its range in the Southern Primorye, where its caterpillars feed on nettles.
By the way, the butterfly is in our Red List. As in many other cases, it is unjustified.
Good find. Did you manage to withdraw it?

This is very important to me. The fact is that in July 2006, in the Don Delta near Rostov, these caterpillars simply devoured Acer negundo-an ash-leaved maple, the leaves were devoured to the veins, entangling them with a filthy web. smile.gif
No one wants to eat this stuff (Acer negundo) in Central Russia...
Thank you in advance.

Hello, I read almost the entire forum - I found a lot of useful things, especially on the caterpillars of Karelia. But there are some questions. Tell me.
I've identified it now:
False burrs of the willow sawfly on the white willow. Is it true???
(July, Prioksko-Terrasny Nature Reserve, 2005)


And another beast... Not defined. I thought it was a pine hawk moth...
