ArmywormsDescription: Cutworms and armyworms are the caterpillars of several species of night-flying moths. Cut-worms are plump, smooth and often, greasy-looking. Typically, cutworms curl up tightly when disturbed. They have greenish, brownish, grayish, or striped bodies, up to 1 3/4 inches long. Although about the same size, the armyworms differ in appearance. True armyworms are plump, sparsely-haired, generally green to brown larvae, with dark stripes running down the sides and back. These caterpillars feed on the aboveground plant parts of many grasses and is a pest of many garden and field crops. |
