The chrysalis is covered in a shiny, golden cuticle with a metallic-like appearance. The extraordinary surface is reflective which is important to their survival because they easily reflect the colors from their surroundings allowing them to blend in almost anywhere they hang.
The chrysalis is from the Tithorea Tarricina butterfly.
