@TathraPreschool : I hope you can rear it to the adult moth for verification of the species.

I'm not sure this caterpillar matches photos of G. henricaria I can see online, but admittedly its similar.

Yes. I was thinking that available photos are of various instars, and there will be differences, but I think the intricate pattern of fine dark lines is identical and probably unique to the species.
