Hyalarcta huebneri is a common casemoth (bagworm) found in south eastern Australia. It is usually seen in larval form in a case made of silk and the vegetative material most readily available, and is quite adaptable to various plant species. In early stages they exist head-down in the case but as they get larger they will invert and move around head-up.
