This is really getting fun. Larva are of many sizes, 3 are first instar. I am not experienced enough to gauge the instar levels of the others.
As observed earlier, I am finding these only on A. Asperula (of which I have about 10). Nothing has been observed on the A. Currasavica (of which I have 7). No eggs, no larva. There is enough leaf material in the Tropicals to support larva. Possibly, mother knows best when selecting the best plant to lay her eggs.
Wildflowers in my pollinator garden are blooming nicely now. Early blooming understory trees are fading.
