  • This looks like the place to ask about identifying strange insects! I hope I can get some help with this caterpillar. We saw it in cool temperate rainforest in New England National Park climbing a mossy Antarctic Beech tree. It was quite spectacular with long white hairs, yellow head and bottom, and four more solid, feather-like extensions on its back amongst the white hairs. It was about 5-6 cm long. Would love to know what it is and what it will become! Thanks for any help.
  • I am hoping someone could help us identify this dragon we photographed on the weekend near Ashford (NSW). It was approximately 20-22cm in body length from nose to base of tail and was sunning itself by the roadside (dirt road) with its tail looped up.
    Thanks for any help with this! We have some close up photos of its head if needed.
