Ciid Pupa - Cis submicans

Ciid Pupa - Cis submicans
Guelph, Wellington, Ontario, Canada
March 10, 2007
Size: ~ 3 mm
One of these larvae have pupated, I think on 23.III.2007, since I last checked the larva on March 22. It had attained a length of approximately 5 mm prior to pupation. I found it interesting that the pupa is finely hairy, and that it retained the terminal hooks possessed by the larva.
