Hello, all,

The attached photos are of a chrysalis/cocoon found in Springfield, TN on
June 3, 2012. It was on a peony in a family member's yard.

It was bright, shiny silver and looked for the world like a Variegated
Fritillary chrysalis, but the wings aren't right and it's too silvery. I
don't think it is a Pearl or a Silvery because they are more brown, plus
there's the webbing.

Does anyone know what it is? This is not a quiz!
