September 02, 2010, from pupa of Papilio machaon (8 larvae collected on July 30, 2010 on Pastinaca sativa, Bekasovo-1 station, Naro-Fominsk district, Moscow region, Russia; 4 butterflies has emerged in early 2nd decade of August, it's a bit late to wait for the remaining 3 so they're probably infested, too). Size 16 mm. Looks pretty much like Thyrateles camelinus to me yet abdomen with distinct metallic bluish tint.

While others can't climb, using infinite pains,
I, gravity turning to jest,
Ascend, with all ease, perpendicular planes,
Rough or smooth, just as pleases me best.

Wow - that's much more exciting than a rubbishy old Papilio butterfly Grin
