Spotting

Description:

Pale green caterpillar with an orange head, hidden in a layer of waste held together by silk threads. Length: about 4 cm.

Habitat:

On pinetrees.

Notes:

I found several of these curious cylinders hanging from a pinetree in my garden. When I opened one of them, I saw this greenish caterpillar. Possibly Psychidae family?
