Cup Moth larvae are often highly ornamented and brightly colored. Two main types can be distinguished: larvae armed with rows of protuberances bearing stinging spines called nettle caterpillars, or non-spined forms where the surface of the larvae may by completely smooth, called gelatine caterpillars. The larvae of this family bear no prolegs on their abdominal segments. The larva attaches itself to the substrate by means of an adhesive ventral surface. The movement is like a slug hence their generic name.
A stinging slug caterpillar (like this one) generally bears warning colouration and stinging hairs. These hairs can inject a venom from poison sacs carried at their base that are used as defensive weapons. Reactions can range from a mild itching to a very painful sting.

You will notice I have given each individual a descriptive superhero-style name in the title of the image. The Setora genus have several colour variations - "Red Devil", "Yellow Devil" and "Green Devil". This is for my own reference mainly because practically none of these caterpillars are identified (maybe even ever formally) and this will allow me to group the growing number of images I have into their like-kinds including the various instars I have captured. The names will be included as tags.

Cup Moth larvae are often highly ornamented and brightly colored. Two main types can be distinguished: larvae armed with rows of protuberances bearing stinging spines called nettle caterpillars, or non-spined forms where the surface of the larvae may by completely smooth, called gelatine or just slug caterpillars. The larvae of this family bear no prolegs on their abdominal segments. The larva attaches itself to the substrate by means of an adhesive ventral surface. The movement is like a slug hence their generic name.

Globally, the connection between adult cup moths and their caterpillars remains sketchy. Although many, and increasingly more, of the moths are being identified, their life cycles have not been studied or recorded. This is particularly apparent regionally. As fascinating as these caterpillars are, few can be linked to their night-flying mature forms. Hence, should you be browsing my Flickr set of Limacodid Caterpillars, the majority are generically named and only tentatively identified.
See posts on my tumblr blog, SINOBUG, featuring these magnificent caterpillars HERE.

I'm not happy with the blown out sky but am posting this old image as illustration to my comment on this image.

En 2011, à l'occasion du 65e anniversaire de la Force Aérienne, la patrouille des Diables Rouges est réactivée sur quatre Siai SF.260M Marchetti. Cette formation se substitue ainsi à celle des Hardship Red, créée deux ans plus tôt.Escadrille des Red devils.
Ce sont des virtuoses. Aux commandes, ils fendent l’air, glissent et s’élancent dans les airs. Ils enchaînent les manœuvres, les vrilles, les loopings et les tonneaux. Leur show se regarde comme une danse, c’est un ballet.
