Lichen Moth Pupa and Basket Cocoon (Cyana sp., Lithosiini, Arctiinae, Erebidae) by itchydogimages Via Flickr: Moths of the Cyana genus (Lithosiini, Arctiinae, Erebidae) pupate in a woven basket of the caterpillar's own body hairs rather than silk. It is an open square mesh cage, constructed out of larval hairs held together with silk. The pupa is suspended in the middle of the cage, equidistant from the sides. Pu'er, Yunnan, China see comments for progressive caterpillar to cocoon images....

Cordyceps fungi on moths

Cordyceps fungi are parasitic, mostly on insects. This aids in spreading their spores, because at the last stage of infection they take over the nervous system and force the insect to higher ground.

Oh, and they can infect moth larvae too

The second photo is of caterpillars infected with Ophiocordyceps sinensis, used in Tibetan and Chinese traditional medicine as an aphrodisiac. It's so valuable a fight over it caused 2 people's deaths.

This short article about it is an interesting read

  Ses (centaines d') œufs semblent léviter à la surface de la feuille, chacun d'entre eux étant fixé par un filament pratiquement invisible. Cette caractéristique des œufs de névroptères est mieux connue et illustrée chez les chrysopes, qui pondent chaque œuf sur un long filament, ce qui protège la progéniture des prédateurs et empêche les larves nouvellement écloses de dévorer leurs frères et sœurs.
