Green lacewing cocoon - Chrysoperla plorabunda
100 Acre Wood, Winneshiek County, Iowa, USA
November 27, 2011
It takes me a long time (usually) to give up on a pupa. But on occasion, after waiting almost a year, cutting open the pupa to find a live one, I kick myself for not waiting even longer hence the reason I waited so long to check this one.
