Zeiraphera claypoleana

Zeiraphera claypoleana
Karnack, Harrison County, Texas, USA
March 21, 2020
Size: 11mm
Two larva were collected, the one photographed stopped feeding on 03/16. The other a day later. They made an interesting shelter for pupation out of the host plant leaves. I was unable to locate such shelters in the wild suggesting they utilize leaf litter there.
