Field Notes

Notes:

Not much to say about this, except that he build his cocoon with jagged leaves. He inhabits a specific plant species, but unfortunately I do not have information on this species. I'll photograph it and then post it here to help in the identification, if necessary.

Yes, bayucca! The markings on the head seems to confer with some variations of it. Many thanks, my friend! Sim, Sckel. É uma lagarta!

Could be a Psychidae, bagworm moth, most probably the flightless female.
