Okay, I’m a knucklehead. I’ve been saying Clouded Sulphur when I should have been saying Cloudless Sulphur. No wonder I couldn’t find anything when I searched Google. I’ll fix all my posts. Sorry if I mislead anyone.
A few days ago I wrote a post about this yellow Caterpillar that I had seen on our Cassia tree. I speculated that the Caterpillar was a Cloudless Sulphur Butterfly Caterpillar. I’m still sticking with that speculation.

What was somewhat surprising to me is that there are not many pictures on the web of a Cloudless Sulphur Caterpillar (go ahead and try and search Google). I did see some images labeled “Sulphur” Caterpillar, but really couldn’t find any that stated with certainty that the image displayed was indeed a Cloudless Sulphur Caterpillar so perhaps this is somewhat of a rarity.
Anyway, after two days, the Caterpillar finally turned into a Chrysalis.
This is the first Caterpillar and Chrysalis we’ve even seen in our backyard of the Cloudless Sulphur Butterfly.
