I dont know what those are, but I know what has been eating our peppers. Stink bugs!! And I hate to use pesticide!! We've lost more bell peppers than we gathered.
Man, those are ugly! Took some time to find it, but I found out they're saddleback caterpillars. I finally found this site. Not the friendliest site, but it worked! : http://www.discoverlife.org/mp/20q?guide=Caterpillars
Those are some freaky looking bugs and do look just like the wiki photo. I had a run in with a huge cicada in the garden yesterday. It freaked out when I came near it and I ran like a girl :-)
wow, interesting photo! Some caterpillars that look like that are actually poisonous! Not sure what you have in your area, though.

Very cool Momma_S! Thank you so much for the research. You're awesome. Looks like Erin was right!
