A tomato hornworm from our garden covered with cocoons of pupating braconid wasps.
yeah..i started ''sleeving'' mine, kept 98% of the bad bugs away.Great pic! Sad reality for caterpillar lovers. I put some Polyphemus caterpillars on a small Live oak tree in my backyard some years ago, none made it. It'd suck to be a caterpillar.
fairly cute.Holy god! That looks uncomfortable. I guess it's a relief to know the hornworms are pretty significant pests (even more so after trying to rear them last summer :wall.
Is it me, or do most parasitic wasps look cute?
