pupas - July 6 - Cotesia
Cross Plains, Dane County, Wisconsin, USA
July 6, 2011
These pupas were on the bottom of the container. I don't know whether the caterpillar was already parasitized when I collected it or whether I had inadvertently introduced a parasite into the container when adding grass. So now I'll have to see what these develop into.
