Picture is the cocoon of the Sleepy Orange Sulfur.

They assume a modified "J" position but both ends, front and back, are attached to a surface. The one in the photo is attached to a paper towel. It enclosed itself last night. There is another cocoon in the container. Still over a dozen cats in the container eating. Some are so tiny I am afraid to remove the old leaves.
