Olympia Marble Chrysalis - Euchloe olympia

Olympia Marble Chrysalis - Euchloe olympia
Lambton, Ontario, Canada
May 28, 2006
The Olympia Marble caterpillar has transformed into this. What amazes me is how these creatures survive through the heat of summer, then the cold Canadian winter and emerge next Spring. They certainly are well camouflaged.
