Pearly Underwing or Variegated Cutworm Moth Larva - Peridroma saucia
Town of Baileys Harbor, Hidden Corners Sanctuary, Door County, Wisconsin, USA
May 20, 2006
Size: 1 in. long
Surviving larva, 23 days old. Formed pupa on May 31, 2006. In September 2006, the pupa looked deformed and was very light in weight. I assumed it was dead and put it outside in some leaf litter.
