Has anyone in South Carolina, especially the Charleston area, seen bright
orange arctiid caterpillars on oleander recently? I am a grad student at
Wake Forest starting out my PhD work on the adult behavior of *Syntomeida
epilais *and *Empyreuma affinis *and *S. epilais* makes it's way up the
coast from Florida during the summer on the ornamental oleander. My animals
had a die off earlier this fall and I am looking for more.


Best,

Jess
