I'm thinking this is some sort of army worm.
Aphids
Southern Armyworm, Spodeptera eridania? (The question mark means I don't really know)
A different angle of these two paling around
Newly borns
The ubiquitous diamondback moth, Plutella xylostella
Neon slime
Neon spidie
Another diamondback moth
Army worm?
Metamorphosis
Who says I never host parties?
Shredage
The yellowstriped armyworm I beleive, Spodoptera ornithogalli
The curl up self defense, not particularly effective
#2 look like mealybugs or maybe wooly aphids. I think the last picture is a cut worm, but I'm not sure. They're usually not active during the day. I agree with your conclusions on most of the armyworm pictures.
ReplyDeleteWow. Party down, little guys. Thanks for the bug tutorial, Travis. Maybe it's time for a warm-weather crop!
ReplyDeleteHeh. Love the captions.
ReplyDeleteLooks like you're feeding a massive ecosystem, if not yourself.
