Small ermine moth caterpillar, Yponomeuta padellus, in Guernsey on 26 May 2006
On the 26 May 2006 I found an extensive area of caterpillar damage to the east of a path leading to Jaonnet Bay on Guernsey's south coast.
Entomologist Dr. Charles David of the Guernsey Biological Records Centre identifies this caterpillar as the Small Ermine moth, Yponomeuta padellus.

Sealord photography's biodiversity images began with a focus on international commercial seafood species and the marine life of the Bailiwick of Guernsey, Great Britain.
Sealord photography has a growing collection of digital images covering climate change, the environment and sustainability issues.
Sealord photography also covers the Guernsey community and particularly the fund raising activities of Guernsey charities as part of the island's social sustainability.
The fish, shellfish and marine life images would not be possible if it were not for the generosity of commercial and recreational fishermen in Guernsey, and seafood suppliers at various trade shows in the USA, and wholesalers at Fulton Fish Market in New York City.
Many marine biologists have helped identify or confirm the identity of marine species photographed. These people have been mentioned when possible.
