Case Moth/Bag Worm/Bag Moth (Psychidae). The cocoon or case is mobile. The caterpillars are leaf miners when they are very small and may take several years before they come to the pupate stage. If it is a female, it will not develop wings and will never come out of the bag. It waits for a winged male in her bag.

Where do lunar moths cocoon?
They mostly are found in a cocoon where they live. Lunar Moth Caterpillars usually live in Mexico, South America, and all over the USA.

In case you were wondering they do not glow in the dark. I hope this was hopeful! I recently found one on my porch my self and am waiting for for it to come out of a cocoon. Oh!
