Found a chrysalis inside a hive yesterday. It was on top of the queen excluder below three Supers, above a commercial brood box with a slatted rack and underfloor entrance. Seems an unlikely place for a caterpillar to go. Anyone else experienced this or know what kind of moth or butterfly it might be?
It's clearly not a wax moth and is far too small to be a death's head hawkmoth.
