While walking along the narrow path that leads to the sea I noticed two different caterpillar species feeding near each other on the same plant.

I never saw this combination before ... and I don't know what type of butterfly will these larvae one day become ... and the most important thing, I never saw different caterpillars forming some kind of small herds, usually you can see only the same species together.

As always, the photographs are my work.

The dark caterpillars belong to the small emperor moth (Saturnia pavonia). The green larvae belong to the leaf wasp (Periclista albida).
