Well, thank you S Frazier. I will complete the description, and apologize for the shortcomings.

Great. I see from your other spotting that the caterpillar was spotted on February 20. Please add this information and the date the pupa was spotted to the description. This question came up because, as is, the spotting implies everything was spotted at the same time which of course can't be the case. We encourage spotters to add information to the spotting fields provided. Please see the advice "What should I add to my spotting?" AND "What do I put in the fields?" under the site's FAQs available here http://www.projectnoah.org/faq and at the bottom of every web page. Terima kasih banyak!

S Frazier, I am not sure of the name of this species. But, of course this one species (same individual), because I keep it from caterpillar to cocoon into moth.
Scott Frazier
But are they the same individual (definition of a spotting)...
