| Dear forum members-
Please help me identify this caterpillar--it's about 1 inch long (probably very common), but I don't know what to feed it. I found it in the beach sand at our beach in Chicago. Pls see link for photo Thanks in advance!! Narda |

| I'm no expert, but likely that's some kind of moth that may be a "general feeder" - will eat many plants/trees. You may want to try a couple of leaves from some common plants for that area. Just my 2 cents. Thanks for looking out for the little guys! |

| Thanks, fighting, but I do need to narrow the feeding plants down. Thus I need the exact name of the caterpillar / moth. Can anyone else give me a clue? Gaby |
