Johan, your larvae appear to be that of Morpho telemachus; please see this earlier thread: http://neotropicalbutterflies.com/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=21&t=76.

For four images of this or a closely related Peruvian species, click http://www.photographersdirect.com/ and then search on the erroneously labeled: stinging flag moth caterpillars.

Your other larval photo for ID shows a moth, which are not my forte.

Kind regards,

Keith
