Damage:
Clothed again, I noticed these pitchers were damaged. The tip of the pitcher at top-left is browned
from a late frost. The grey pitchers are from the previous year, and their toppled nature suggests old damage from
Exyra moths. I noticed some had holes cut in their sides, presumably the
Exyra? Or was a wasp involved?
Some other interesting symptoms of insect activity include this
pitcher top plugged with frass. I saw an insect exploring some of the pitchers
and I took photographs of it. However, upon my return I learned that this bug was just
a sawfly and was not known to have any particular relationship with
Sarracenia pitchers.
