The scientific name for a cocoon varies depending on the species of insect that creates it. Generally, it is referred to as a "pupa" or "chrysalis" in the case of butterflies and moths. The term "cocoon" specifically describes the protective casing spun by certain larvae, particularly in the order Lepidoptera. Each type of cocoon can have a different scientific designation based on the insect species involved.
