butterfly or moth .
Caterpillars have a cylindrical body consisting of 13 segments, with three pairs of legs on the thorax and "prolegs" on the abdomen. The head has six eyes on each side, short antennae, and strong jaws. Though not true worms , many caterpillars are called worms (e.g., the inchworm, or looper , and the cutworm ). Caterpillar-like larvae are also found in other insect groups (e.g., {{link=sawfly">sawflies and scorpionflies).
