Linda...

Do you have photos of the TPS cats? I thought you had posted them on another post but couldn't find them. Your TSP chrysalis looks like one I am baby sitting. I found a caterpillar on waltheria indica and it didn't look like a mallow scrub hairstreak cat...so I waited and watched. Here's a photo of the chrysalis it formed. Has the same dots like yours...hairy too...but mine has red eyes. It also preferred to stay inside a leaf nest as a caterpillar and formed the chrysalis inside a leaf nest as well.
