According to a book I have you can see in this photo where the "head area is becoming swollen with fluid; soon the skin will split and roll back." from Florida's Fabulous Butterflies by Thomas Emmel. It is a small book but it does have some nice large photographs of the butterflies and cats also includes a section on Moths. |
