Fall Armyworm
Scientific name: Spodoptera frugiperda (J.E. Smith)
(Lepidoptera: Noctuidae)
Facts: Fall armyworm larvae are tan or green to nearly black caterpillars with three yellow hair lines down the back and a wider one on each side. Prominent white markings form an upside down Y on the front of the head readily distinguishing it from other armyworms. Full-grown larvae may attain a length of 1 to 1 1/2 inches.
