replies: text: It looks like the text at Social Caterpillars is copied from the same site.  And the same user (User:Medetera) also added the text of Tent caterpillar, although in that case I can't find where it might have been copied from.  I have left a note on Medetera's user talk page, asking about this.  Perhaps Medetera is Terrence Fitzgerald, or perhaps Medetera has reason to think that we have permission to use this text.  If Medetera doesn't respond there, we should probably write Professor Fitzgerald (email: ) and ask him about it.  --Allen 16:39, 20 May 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Definitely. Both pages are copy-pastes from that site, and if it isn't the professor, he should be notified. If it is, perhaps he should put something on his site noting that it's free for use on wiki? SB Johnny 10 78 kdfg jdfghj
I found this article very well-written and the species itself fascinating. A relatively simple edit to improve the page would be a "Distribution" section to show where the species is most commonly found. A color-coded map could also be helpful for visualization. A section dedicated to mating behavior could also offer insight into what features are selected for in mates. The "Social Behavior" category mentions that females die soon after mating and oviposition, so specific details on why that behavior evolved could be included in the mating category.Catejiang (talk) 04:49, 14 September 2017 (UTC)

I was looking at this page, and in my area (DC/Maryland) these caterpillars are refered to as bagworms, however, allready an article on "True" bagworms. Took me forever to find out they are called tent caterpillars. If no one has an objection, I'm going to add a note about this, as "bagworms" is the only term I've ever heard.

replies: text: This last comment is from an IP address owned by SUNY Cortland, where Professor Fitzgerald works.  I'm satisfied that User:Medetera really is Prof. Fitzgerald.  If any more confusion arises, I'll write Fitzgerald directly to make sure it's really him... but I don't want to bug him unnecessarily; he's the one doing us a favor here.  In the meantime, I'll revert to Medetera/Fitzgerald's much more detailed version of the article.  Professor Fitzgerald: assuming there's no weird conspiracy to impersonate you, thanks for your contributions!  --Allen 03:13, 14 July 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Stemonitis, you reverted back to the shorter version, saying it was a better article.  Could you explain why you feel this way?  Fitzgerald's version references a published source, and seems to contain a lot more information.  --Allen 17:33, 16 July 2006 (UTC)

Should we insert one or both of these somehow? Tevonic (talk) 17:41, 8 January 2009 (UTC)

message: From where to where, in the north and south, is this moth found? Has it spread (e.g. by globalisation) to other continents?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 217.91.18.203 (talk) 08:09, 23 September 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: I wanted to know that, too. Even in 2022 there's nothing to find about in the article. --Kai.pedia (talk) 10:48, 19 April 2022 (UTC)
