I do not see the dorsal thoracic and terminal horn pairs of O. vinaria larvae, and it seems to have a full set of prolegs. O. vinaria larvae have two pairs missing. What plant is it on?
@Hejor1 : I think you will have to rear this to get an adult moth to determine its species.

With a full set of prolegs it could be anything.

@donhe sounds like I’m going to need a whole nursery! Thanks for your help with IDs!
