Bagworm In India
The moths of the family Psychidae (Insecta: Lepidoptera) are known as bagworms, because, the bagworm moth larva uses debris to build a self-enclosing mobile protective case, which hangs on the branches of a tree or a twig at height. Its clever camouflaging ability looks like a small twig is walking. Bagworm species are commonly polyphagous and known as pests that damage different crops by defoliating the leaves. This photo was taken at Tehatta, West Bengal, India on august 22, 2022. (Photo by Soumyabrata Roy/NurPhoto)
