Description:

The many species of cutworms can be quite distinct. Many are stout, smooth, soft-bodied, plump caterpillars. These vary from brown or tan to pink, green or gray and black. Some are all one color, others spotted or striped. Some larvae are dull, others appear glassy. The adults are generally very robust brown or black moths showing various splotches, blotches or stripes in shades of gray, brown, black or white.

I bet they curl up if ya touch em?
