In Reply to: small cocoons on hornworms posted by WK on September 23, 2002 at 19:25:25:

:Greetings, All -

:We found several large caterpillars on my wife's tomato plants today. I think they are tomato or tobacco hornworms. A couple of these were covered with what appeared to be small white cocoons. I know this is a parasite of some kind, and I think I've seen it pictured on this forum before. However, I don't recall what it was. My kids have set up a few of the healthy appearing cats in a cage and are waiting for them to pupate. Do you think these will erupt with cocoons too? Thanks.
