Some hairs at the tail end of the final caterpillar stage are called 'caltrop' spines, after Roman defensive weapons. They can fall off.1
The pupa sits in a cup-shaped cocoon with a circular escape hatch.1
Several parasitoids attack this species, including tachinid flies and both eulophid and braconid wasps.1
Males far outnumber females in these populations.1
