I've collected descriptions of the "bags" of all the American bagworms north of Mexico (1), and there are several different species in Florida that this might be. Collecting a mature one and identifying the adult that emerges is probably the only way to be sure.

Bagworms
From what I have heard/learned about bag worms from one of our editor/experts, I think sometimes you have to examine the larva that's inside the case...before and after pupation, I think. I'm no expert on these, though...

I see that you are a new member? Welcome to Bug Guide!!

In case you hadn't seen our bagworms yet, please check out this link which will take you to the psychidae family, where you can browse through the ones that have already been identified. All blue links can be clicked on to reveal more images. :)

And don't worry...if you wait a little bit more, an expert will help you ID your find(s).
