Sandy was able to lend us a container for the critter, so our white pupa, still unidentified but possibly a moth, has a new home.
Gary, of Not Very Far Away, a nature blog, says the narrow white cocoon may hold the pupa of a cecropia silkmoth or a Callosamia promethea moth. Both are beautiful and pictured below. I will continue to research and share my findings — but it’s exciting!
She’s inside a clear plastic container with a vented orange lid, sitting in the sun, under a crate. Stop by and say hi!
