The pair of dorsal glands on the last 2 abdominal segments are characteristic of Lymantriinae.

Thanks. Will check my photos of other very hairy caterpillars.

Actually also interesting that so far this moth doesn't occur in my adult photos. I do have more that I haven't posted so maybe it is in there somewhere.
