I can't find a reference that indicates that Evergreen Bagworm Moth occurs in Arizona.

Moved
Moved from Unidentified Casebearers. Seems safe to say it's one of the big bagworms, either Oiketicus or Thyridopteryx. I'm not familiar with the southwestern species.

Arizona bagworms
Here is an incomplete list of seven bagworm species in SE Arizona. It doesn't include the evergreen bagworm, but does include two others in that genus. Was this in a bag when you found it?

And How!
It was like trying to cut steel!

I seem to remember consulting the page you linked to. Maybe there weren't as many species listed at the time. I came-up with Evergreen Bagworm Moth probably from BugGuide: . I don't fully remember my process.

I've added a photograph of several larvae in cases. I think those are pine needles but I'll double-check. I double-checked and I think the brownish-red tigs are from a Prunus, an ornimental plumb I believe. The gray things I think are pine needles.

I hope people don't mind that I linked the third image, the featured individual is in there somewhere.
