The Rare 'Skull' Caterpillar of Australia

The Rare 'Skull Caterpillar of Australia
The extraordinary specimen is the larvae of the pink underwing moth (Phylllodes Imperialis),
an endangered species fighting for its life in the Australian rainforest.

Luckily, photograper Lui Weber managed to snap the rare caterpillar, which is characterised by a set of teeth-like markings set between spots that look like eyes with large pupils and scare away predators.
