This is the second series on caterpillar, i.e tropical green caterpillar. The black spot on the right looks like an eye but it's fake to trick predator. The fake eyes look intimidating to fend of predator and the caterpillar head is actually tiny.
Cropped photo. Caterpillar photo taken with flash.
Uncropped photo. The caterpillar photo is not so sharp due to poor lighting. It's was late in the afternoon.
