spotted tussock mothLophocampa maculata
This caterpillar somehow landed on my arm while hiking. It was only about 1/2 inch long and, boy, did it have a lot of personality. I'm guessing it recently hatched and was still in the first or second instar.

It's thanks to one of your blog post that I even knew where to begin to look for ID.
