chrysalis buried in dirt

18 years ago

I found a 3-4 inch long, fat reddish brown chrysalis like thing in a niche in the dirt under a wooden pallet. The area is dark, shady and moist. This reminds me of a cocktail weiner. There is a stem like thing on one end, like it would maybe hang from. It seemed to be perfectly burrowed into a notch on the top of the dirt, just it's body size. You can see that it will have wings and at the end is the very fat segmented reddish brown caterpiller like body that moves and wriggles around. Any ideas what this is? Sorry, digital camera isn't working right now. Thanks!
