Dunno when the next batch is do here, but have seen the exoskeletons in quantity. First week of July is when i normally hear the annual ones around here in Southern CT. Find the "shells"through the Summer on out wood siding and tree trunks Pics of one i found last Summer that was fresh from its "shell." Wings hadnt dried yet.
the ones we've had here at my place seem to be a wee bit bigger the're black with red eyes yellow wings
