Image of Carolina sphinx
Description:
We found 10 of these on our tomato plants. Sadly my mom doesn't like them so she killed everyone of them even though I offered to raise them. The main way of identifying the caterpillars is the color of the horns. These guys have red horns while tomato hornworms have blue horns.
