Photo of Variegated Fritilary chrysalis

I got the answer to my question today. I saw this cat fixing to shed his last cat skin. I didn't think to take a photo until hours later when it was already a chrysalis.
This one has the same cage of silk spun around him so I'm going to assume that all Variegated frits do that.
The dark thing on the leaf is the dried up skin it shed.
