constructs the distinctive, brush-like larval bag by selecting a short section of a fresh twig which is carefully split longitudinally into fine, narrow filaments of wood pulp, an apical end of which is sown into the bag near the anterior aperture. Gradually larger filaments and sections of twig are added as the larva increases in size. Small portions of leaves and leaf veins are present at the posterior aperture of known larval bags, possibly indicating that the early instar case design is temporarily leafy as in young
