Hyalophora kasloensis
Hyalophora kasloensis 4th instar courtesy of Scott Smith.
This is a 4th instar Hyalophora kasloensis larva. The ova came from a wild collected female near Glacier Park, Whitefish, Montana, just west of the continental divide. These are beautiful larva, unlike other Hyalophora larva. All dorsal scoli are ruby red; the lateral scoli are bright turquoise blue tipped with black spines. I'll send more photos of other stages soon.
Enjoy!
Scott
