Hello,
Does anyone knows the name of this large caterpillar? First week of May, Northern Greece. Thanks in advance,
Herman Damman

Hi Herman,
I've scoured my caterpillar book and the nearest I can find is Bright-line Brown Eye, which ticks most of the boxes. In UK it is mainly found in July and August, but is apparently variously brooded in Europe.
Tony.
