Seriously! Are they the same species, but just a different colour morph?

@bette No, two distinct species. There is another one with no coloured tail called a gypsy moth. Of course the "tail" is just the end of the abdomen stuck up in the air. This rather feeble defence strategy puts off species that only eat live prey I imagine.
