As it feeds, it changes from yellowish white to greenish yellow and becomes older and larger.

PINK BOLLWORM The pink bollworm is an insect known for being a pest in cotton farming. The adult is a small, thin, gray moth with fringed wings. The larva is a dull white, caterpillar with eight pairs of legs with conspicuous pink banding along its dorsum. Pink bollworms damage squares and bolls, the damage to bolls being the most serious. Larvae burrow into bolls, through the lint, to feed on seeds. As the larva burrows within a boll, lint is cut and stained, resulting in severe quality loss. Under dry conditions, yield and quality losses are directly related to the percentage of bolls infested and the numbers of larvae per boll.

SPOTTED BOLLWORM Spodoptera litura, otherwise known as the tobacco cutworm or cotton leafworm, is a nocturnal moth in the Noctuidae family. S. litura is a serious polyphagous pest. It has a very wide host range of over 120 plant species. Spodoptera litura, the tobacco caterpillar has attained major pest status because of its high reproductive potential along with the ability to migrate to long distances as adults. At the same time only larval stages cause 80-90% economic losses due to its voracious feeding of the leaf. Feeding is initially by skeletonizing, or leaving the outline of the leave veins on the plant. As growth continues, caterpillars eat entire leaves, and even owers and fruits..
