Genus : Paraguda - Wattle snout moth caterpillar Found this caterpilar on a pedestrian footpath,not near any food plant. I took it home and put it onto a feijoa leaf only to take a photo. It started feeding on the leaf and I hope I can rear it . Identification with a image of the adult will be much easier, if it lives and grows on the substitute foodplant.
