    Thank you Roger. With regards to hostplant, can you advise how to get it ID'd. Also, which publication would you recommend to publish this info in, and would you be kind enough to vet the article when I've completed it?

    Four of my 9 Cyclosia papilionaris cocoons have emerged. Three are what I was expecting (First two pics), but the fourth is completely different (last 2 pics). Can you explain this please. Roger?

    That was quick!. Thank you. I had looked at the antennae and they 'appeared' to be the same (though I wasn't wearing my glasses! ) so I thought that they were all the same sex. Also, I had obviously only seen pics of the whiter female before!
