Both of the larger larvae jus
Both of the larger larvae just died--not sure why. I preserved them in ethanol, but I am not sure if there is hope of getting an ID on them. I guess I'll try again next year, or I'll search for pupae on wild plants... I know I'd be sending those on to others anyway for ID, but any advice would be welcome.
