Submitted by: Dtinsley
Specimen type: Photograph
Observation notes: I found it on a Penta. It has moved to another Penta and now turning brown and beginning it's pupa. I'm would like to now what kind it is so I will know how long it will be in its pupa and trying to figure out if it will winter in it. I'm located in north Florida. Thank You!
