Critters of The Bend #2

It wasn't until I cropped in very closely on this photo that I realised just how freaky-looking this tiny bug was:


After a search on whatsthatbug.com I determined it's some sort of stinging slug caterpillar, either Parasa Indetermina or Isa Textula, both pretty fabulous names. In any case, it should be "handled with caution".
I had no intention of getting any closer.
