Une chenille (Cucullia verbasci) en train de boire, bord de l'Hers à Toulouse (31).

"La chenille de la Brèche ou Cucullie du Bouillon blanc est, comme son nom l’indique spécifiquement liée à cette plante dont elle se nourrit.
L’imago, c’est à dire l’adulte est un papillon nocturne de couleur brune, dont la beauté est loin de rivaliser avec celle de la chenille."

(En) A caterpillar is drinking (Cucullia verbasci) in Toulouse (31).

The imago is a moth brown, whose beauty is far from competing with that of the caterpillar.
