Of course skeptical moth is correct. =) I got to Euphydryas, thanks to a ringer-friend (after throwing in the towel once I'd looked at 10,000 butterfly baby pictures).
I don't know, however, how variable caterpillars are within species, so wouldn't try to go further than that--I expect skepticalmoth is the one to do that. =)
A beautiful creature in both juvenile and adult form. =)
Nymphalidae: Euphydryas, probably chalcedona sierra.
