Found on 6/25/23. Early instars were green, intermediate and late instars were brown with the posterior eyespot. When disturbed as a large caterpillar with the eyespot, the larva would whip around and raise its posterior with the eyespot, seeming to be a snake mimic. The larva stopped feeding on 7/14/23 and wandered around for about a week before pupating burrowed in some soil by 7/20. The container was put in the fridge (~36 degs Fahrenheit) on 10/27/23 and was brought out on 3/17/24. The adult eclosed on 4/18/24.
