Thanks! Seems like handpicking the larvae on the first generation was not thorough enough. Now it’s a horde. Today it’s looking bleak for one of the 4 plants ':)
The consumption of leaves is astonishing.
On the positive, this has been a good science project for my 5 yo. Catching larvae and pupae, and watching the birthing moth.
We’re not eating tomatoes (from these house plants anyway) but we’re having some fun.
That Regal moth is awesome! The caterpillar too. And I think i’d surrender the tomatoe plants to them the first time I saw them around.

I believe now this is a Tomato Looper, aka Golden Twin-spot moth — Chrysodeixis chalcites.
From a 12yo reddit post with a very very similar larvae on tomato plants, somebody said it was a cabbage looper (wiki).
But after chancing a search for “tomato looper” I finally found a different species with a very very similar larvae and from there a name and good photo for the moth, Golden Twin-spot.
Now to find how to save the plants!..
If I let them grow, I’m sure I can send you a good bag. XD
Francisco@mander.xyzto Science@mander.xyz•Analysis: Most research on PFAS harms is unpublicizedEnglish1·2 years agoYou feel free to use expressions and terms as “rub me the wrong way”, “buzzwords”, and “clickbait”. In those cases you are okay with the listener/reader interpreting the implicit meaning over their explicit wording. Why is “forever chemicals” different? Specially in an informal communication setting.

Great summary, thanks!
Despite the great images of IO the linked article comes with this mud pearl “[University of Arizona’s Large Binocular Telescope] With two primary mirrors measuring 8.4 m (~27.5 ft), it has a collecting area slightly greater than that of a 30-meter (98.4 ft) telescope.”
