Camo!
The Synchlora genus of moths belongs in the family of Geometridย Mothsย (Geometridae) which are commonly called inchworms. The Synchlora genus has the remarkable habit of adorning themselves with bits of flowers for camouflage. I found this one on grass but the Lyre-leaf sage is very thick here. That is what I suspect it used for camouflage.
Keep looking!
Geometers are really fascinating.
Sure are!
Amazing that you even saw it!

Mary sees things no one else sees. Even things that arent there.
Some may say a brain ailment Lol
My first Camouflage Loopers were on Frogfruit. That was very cool. They are one of my favorites.
My first was on brown-eyed susans.
I think my first one was on the Zinnias at home.
Probably should have been doing calculus or something and found it instead. ๐๐๐
Hey it was sorta math being an inchworm ๐๐
