User's notes
In a hide made of acacia leaves glued together. 1mm grid. I collected 3 and they're in seperate jars, but I suspect they might be the same species/genus with this one being a later instar (based on nothing but vibes).
This one is named "DJ 'cado" because the colour scheme reminds me of avocado.
I'll update if they survive.
