That debris-speckled looper was an early-instar larva of Synchlora aerata, the wavy-lined emerald.
All ten points go to David Winter, who got there first.
Tallying points for July, it seems we have a 1st place tie at 10 points each between David Winter and Keith Bayless, who solved the first week’s mystery. Congratulations, gentlemen. Contact me for your loot.
