Next message: by way of Journey North: "Challenge Question #16"
Mrs. Swentzel's third grade class from Stanhope(Byram), NJ were carefully
observing the two different caterpillars. The monarch larva has a large
black head and the Queen seems to have a small black face rather than a
head. The monarch larva has a light green body coloring while the queen
has a little darker green body with what appears to be some spots. It also
seems to have some small black spikes and the monarch has none. This is
how we were able to tell the differences between the two caterpillars.
