Last week at Rock Corral - (San Bernardino Co., California) - I found Hemileuca electra mojavensis larva on this plant.
Does any body know what this plant is??
At home, they are doing OK on Eriogonum fasculatum (buckwheat).
Thanks
Bedros

The plant was about 4 foot tall. Here is a picture of the plant. Thanks Bedros Attachments:
