Notes:   Two batches of Tree Nymph larvae on Duiker Berry. Boisduval\'s larvae were recorded on the opposite bank of the river a couple of months ago. These larvae pictured were taken to be raised. They seem to show different behavior than Boisduval\'s in that they sit with heads held up when at rest (see last picture taken on 13 August).
