Psyche cat. on Cleome rutidosperma:<\/a>\u00a0\u00a0Found this caterpillar on a Cleome<\/i> sp., i think, is Cleome rutidosperma<\/i>. But the flowers are more violet here than my earlier post on the same species where the flowers were blue<\/span><\/a>! Maybe seasonal variation!<\/p>\n

Now, as my mentors in this group have taught me to use the name of the taxonomist behind every nomenclature, i find the name DC. ….well. let me read more about DC. …Ah! here it is – http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Augustin_Pyramus_de_Candolle<\/span><\/a>.<\/div>\n
But, who is the caterpillar? More net search tells me that it is a caterpillar<\/span><\/a> of Psyche butterfly<\/span><\/a> and Cleome<\/i> is their LF plant<\/span><\/a>.<\/div>\n
Thanks God, er, EFI, now everything is in order!<\/div>\n
