I offer you a photo series of pupation of the caterpillar of the Apatura perelivnitsa (rather iris). The pupa did not produce a butterfly, as it was infected, but the pupation process was captured. Caterpillar found in June on a concrete fence, Moscow region, Odintsovo district, d. Yudino.

It was funny to watch the monster with horns turn into a kind of withered leaf.

Ready-made, but still soft pupa.
