The Pseudosphinx tetrio Caterpillar ✌

Pseudosphinx tetrio- A moth species found in the American tropics. It can be found form Brazil up to some southern states in the USA. The larvae, as you can see, is quite large and very colourful. The colour pattern is used as a aposematic warning against predators, warning for potential toxicity. Adults can have a wingspan of 12.7 to 14cm. P. tetrio is able to detoxify, and possibly sequester, the toxic latex produced by host plants in the family Apocynaceae.

✌This specimen was found in Medellin, Colombia. Yup that’s me holding it. They are harmless to humans, I let it go peacefully after taking this picture. Biological classification: Animalia- Arthropoda- Insecta- Lepidoptera- Sphingidae-Pseudosphinx tetrio
