Caterpillar of the Fox Moth (Macrothylacia rubi).
The species is well distributed over much of Europe, and common in places. Its preferred habitats are open woodland, moors and commons. The caterpillar is covered with blackish and tawny-coloured hairs and feeds on heather (Calluna) and bramble (Rubus), amongst others. This one was afraid of me and it has coiled up itself. |
