Is this a fly pupa? I found it under bark. It was very small, possibly about 2 mm. West Virginia forest, USA, 20 March 2009. Edited by Stephen on 28-03-2009 10:40 --Stephen Stephen Cresswell www.americaninsects.net |

It is a fly puparium - the bright colour suggests it's formed recently - in a few days it will have darkened up. Can't tell which family, though - too many possibilities!
