Unidentified_cocoon Not sure what kind of crysalis this is. I do know I saw a giant leopard moth caterpillar and possibly Hickory Tussock Moth Caterpillars on the same foliage. Any ideas? Geotagged,United States,Winter Click/tap to enlarge

    Nice find! It looks to me like it may be a swallowtail chrysalis. Posted 5 years ago, modified 5 years ago

      Thank you Christine! I did see this in my yard lately Adult male pipevine swallowtail, Battus philenor. Do you think this could be it? Posted 5 years ago

          No need to be sorry, just didn't want you to miss out on communication. And don't feel bothered, perfectly normal to take some time to learn the specifics of this place. Posted 5 years ago

    Hi, since I recently saw a Gulf Fritillary caterpillar on the passion flower vine, I'm wondering if this could be a Gulf Fritillary crysalis in the passion flower vine? Posted 4 years ago, modified 4 years ago
