THE CATERPILLAR. 
31 
Another American caterpillar * has four knobs, 
of a red colour, growing on the front, and four 
on the hinder part of its body. When it is 
touched, it opens these knobs, and darts out 
several bunches of little stings. The wound they 
inflict is very painful, and quite enough to keep 
its enemies at a respectful distance. 
Caterpillar of Doratifera vulnerans.
