Some of the leaves have more than one coccoon and some are larger than others. They were found in Louisiana in the New Orleans area. I have been searching and searching online trying to find out what these things will hatch into, but the closest I've come is finding the attached picture with no information attached. We've got about 30 in a 10 gallon aquarium and my daughter is anxiously watching for something to emerge, but I'm a little afraid of what might come out! |
