Larvae :

The main purpose of having a larval stage may be to feed and gather energy, which is utilized in its subsequent life stages. Usually most insects spend their life as a larvae, because it is the most productive stage in their life cycle.
Cocoon :
Cocoon is a case that has been created by the secreted saliva or silk by the lepidopteron insect larvae. The presence of cocoon ensures the protection for the developing pupa living inside it. It would be interesting to know that cocoon may be either hard or soft depending on the species of the Lepidoptera insect.
