Caddisfly Case (Order Trichoptera) This case was really cool because the end was &quot;sealed&quot; with mesh. When a larval caddisfly gets ready to pupate, it covers the end of its case with mesh to protect it from predation while in its helpless, pupal stage.<br />

This case was really cool because the end was "sealed" with mesh. When a larval caddisfly gets ready to pupate, it covers the end of its case with mesh to protect it from predation while in its helpless, pupal stage.
