QUESTION : White stripped black caterpillar

From : Leong
Hi Gurus,
please tell me what species does this caterpillar belong to ? Saw this in Panti in Johore.

Thanks in advance !

Hi Leong,
The caterpillar in your photo is most likely the larva of the Lyssa mennoetius moth from the Uraniidae family, a relative of the Lyssa zampa moth we see in Singapore.
