Pistol casebearer moth case (Coleophora)

Fletcher Wildlife Garden

This oddly shaped little object is the case inside of which is the larva of a Coleophora moth. These are so called, because the shape resembles the handle of a pistol! They are surprisingly common.Just look at the next black speck on a leaf!
