Tropical yellowish caterpillar - Series #5

This is the fifth series on caterpillars, i.e tropical yellowish (or pale yellow) caterpillar. These caterpillars were found to have infested our Longan tree. At least 11 of those caterpillars were plucked from the Longan leaves and destroyed after the photo shoot.

This specimen of yellowish caterpillar with red head is roughly 2 inches long.

A photo of a bug with spiky legs. I was unable to take the photo from the top or side as the bug is extremely conscious of it surrounding. That's why I only manage to get shots of this bug from underneath.
