butterfly caterpillarsCan you ID me?
Hi Bugman,
Can you please help me identify this “thing”…. I live in Coconut Creek, Florida and saw this on one of my Jasmine plants that I recently brought home from the nursery (bonus!!). I’ve searched the internet far and wide but … just haven’t come across anything that looks like this. Can you help ID me? Thanks so much!

PS – LOVE your website.
Hi Debi,
This is the Chrysalis of a large yellow butterfly known as the Cloudless Sulphur, Phoebis sennae, sometimes called the Senna Sulphur, though it might also be from a close relative, the Orange Barred Sulphur, Phoebis philea.
