Caterpillars – Peterson First Guides

Amy Bartlett Wright

This is the still the easiest introduction to caterpillars available. Caterpillars are arranged by body type, like smooth, hairy and all types in between for easy identification.

From the publisher: “This accessible and portable guide contains detailed information on 120 of the most common North American caterpillars, plus illustrations of the adult butterflies and moths they will become. Also included is information on how to raise caterpillars, where to look for them, and what to feed them.”
