The protecting cover comprised of silk strands that protects the larva of moth as well as other creatures like butterflies is known as a cocoon.

  • The cocoon is just wherein larva develop to insect species.
  • The stage that has a cocoon covering is called a pupa.
  • In addition, the pupa is the stage that occurs among both larvae as well as the adult stage.
  • In contrast towards the butterfly's chrysalides, which have no silken cover, the insect's pupa is coated inside the silk covering whenever it forms a cocoon.
  • The silk moth is the most economically relevant of all lepidopterans because the silk in its cocoon can be unravelled to obtain silk fibre.
  • The sole lepidopteran that has undergone complete training is indeed the silk moth, which doesn't occur in natural settings.
  • In order to leave their cocoons, insects that pupal stage there then must cut their pupa or release a protein called "cocoonase", which aids in peeling the shell.
