However much one may disparage the stolid abdominal crawling behavior of caterpillars, the fact remains that they possess probably the most versatile abdomens in the animal kingdom.... The abdomen is to the caterpillar what arms are to a person. ...caterpillars are such schizophrenic beasts. At one and the same time they must be perfect caterpillars and potential moths. They must be prepared to meet all the challenges that life presents to a slow-moving, earthbound grazer while beginning the construction qf the fragile furred body and gossamer wings that will offer them the freedom of the air. --Dethier (1980)
