I live in Melbourne Australia and found this caterpillar on an Acacia in our garden, but I can't identify and would love to know what it is?
CLOSED: What is this caterpillar
I've been puzzling at length over this one - do you have any other images of this specimen? I would like to se its head and underside more clearly.
That really helped. It appears to be Capusa cuculloides in the family Geometridae. The colouration of this species is highly variable, see https://api.naturemapr.org/api/species/2351/images/3 for an example.
Thank you, much appreciate your help.
