Moth Cocoon - Orgyia sp. I&#039;ve been watching this moth cocoon all winter. I&#039;m not sure what species it is, but I think it&#039;s probably a tussock moth in the genus Orgyia. It could be Orgyia leucostigma?<br /> <br /> Habitat: In the crack of a bridge next to a stream.

Moth Cocoon - Orgyia sp.

I've been watching this moth cocoon all winter. I'm not sure what species it is, but I think it's probably a tussock moth in the genus Orgyia. It could be Orgyia leucostigma?

Habitat: In the crack of a bridge next to a stream.
