Second instar larvae preparing to molt. This is indicated by the yellowness around the orange spots on the larva's back and head. Its skin will become more and more transparent as the larva approaches molting. This can take up to a full 24 hours. Some larger larva will adhere their prolegs to a surface using silk when preparing to molt.
