The caterpillar is bright yellow with blue green and orange colours. There are a number of tubercles around its body. They have reduced legs and move using a slug-like movement of the underside of the body. The cocoon is formed on a leaf. It is spun out of silk in a small sphere, then covered in a liquid that sets like a tiny ball. It has an extremely potent sting, described as being "worse than three wasp stings". https://www.facebook.com/natureinallitsglorypictures http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calcarifera_ordinata   |

Take away the spikes and it almost looks like a lolly.  |
