DRAGONHEAD CATERPILLAR (Polyura schreiber tisamenus) ©Mendis
Dragonhead Caterpillar – The strangest caterpillar I have seen. Belongs to the Blue Nawab. The Blue Nawab is the butterfly resulting from this caterpillar - it is found in tropical Asia. It belongs to the Charaxinae (Rajahs and Nawabs) in the brush-footed butterfly family (Nymphalidae). It occurs from South India and Assam through Myanmar, Tenasserim and Southeast Asia to southern China and to Java, Indonesia.
