It was on a Sycamore so it's probably a Sycamore Tussock. If I can find it, I'll try to raise it. Any suggestions on how to do that successfully?

Was that a sycamore tree it was feeding on? The common Banded Tussock Moth is nearly identical to the Sycamore Tussock Moth in the adult stage. I can't tell the two moths apart. It would be interesting if you can raise the caterpillar. Rich
