Last year, in the middle of summer, I found a fairly large caterpillar (7-9cm) of green color .She pupated and I thought that in 2-3 weeks, as usual, a butterfly or moth will appear.but by the end of summer and autumn, it did not hatch ((I put it on the podoeonnik and forgot.Having recently seen her, I remembered about her, but since she didn't hatch, it wasn't fate.I carefully cut off the cocoon and pulled out the larva-it turned out to be alive!!I moved my belly!apparently it will hatch this year.I'm posting a picture.help me determine

What did the caterpillar look like? In this case, it is more effective than just a pupa. And, if possible, remove the caterpillar skin more completely.

the caterpillar is similar to this one.but with different spots..it appears yellow..I don't remember exactly.
The caterpillar was eating goat willow.

If the appearance of the caterpillar corresponded to the presented photo, then this is a butterfly of the peacock-eyed family. But the skin looks very hairy - wasn't the caterpillar also very hairy? Also tell us where (district, region) the discovery was made - we have only nothing butterflies from the peacock family, and only 2 of them are found in the Middle zone, the rest are southern and Far Eastern species. It is good to remember the plant that the caterpillar ate.

The caterpillar didn't seem to be so hairy..but the remnants of it are as follows)))The caterpillar ate GOAT WILLOW.
And the discovery was made in the Moscow region.Dmitrov district.

Check out the topic"Whose caterpillar?" in the forum thread Classification of insects. Not it? If it is, the find is valuable. The species is rare in the Moscow region.

Or you can give a link to the pictures of the butterfly, which will turn out.

Male and female. Was it really hard to find on Yandex?

16.04.2007 16:59, FILLIN

Thank you.A lot of things come out on Yandex..what I get lost where what=)

And one more question: what is the best thing to do with the pupa?Put her back in a cocoon or hang her up or something?

see the cocoonworms at Leps.it it seems to be one of them.. ?
It looks like the antennae are quite wide, but it's hard to say for sure.. Is it possible to take a picture of the pupa's face from above?

By the way, I have the day before yesterday Hamearis lucina hatched. I found the pupa under a rock

16.04.2007 18:09, FILLIN

Is it big?
when did you find it?and where exactly?)district

16.04.2007 19:04, omar

For Phyllin: the pupa can not be stuffed into the cocoon. In a spacious jar, put cotton wool on the bottom, put a few rough twigs, you can dry them so that the butterfly can climb on them and hang down its back. Tighten the neck of the jar with gauze.

16.04.2007 19:42, FILLIN

Thank you.
And you, as far as I understand, are fond of beetles?

16.04.2007 20:49, omar

It is better not to put it in the jar!!!! I speak from personal experience! They just love their wings, especially big ones like peacock eyes! I personally take a small cup, and surround it with vertically suspended gauze.

Timokhin: I said a spacious jar. And the Pavonia isn't so big that you can't fit in it. This isn't pear-shaped Saturnia, or even tau. As far as I know, there is no more than 80 mm in wingspan, this is if the female, and the male is much smaller.
