User's notes

has been taken into care to see what moth it becomes. Found on same plant as another 2 types of caterpillar. Adding plant on CNM for ID as requested by Donhe as we did not know the plant name. Plant is Genista monspessulana Cape Broom, Montpellier Broom (have been informed it is Noxious or High Risk Weed so will remove it after the caterpillars are finished. We purchased the plant in a container with no name from a well-known hard-ware store.)
