I think the most likely answer is a calliphorid puparium. A bluebottle's sense of smell will guide it to potential food sources, even bricked-up cats. Tony Irwin Dr A.G.Irwin 47 The Avenues Norwich Norfolk NR2 3PH England mobile: +44(0)7880707834 phone: +44(0)1603 453524 On 15 February 2017

Could be sarcophagid puparium. Difficult to say unless the last segment can be seen. Either sarcophagid or calliphorid flies would be good choices. Louis N. Sorkin, B.C.E. Entomologist, Arachnologist, Myriapodologist Entomophagy Research [cid:image001.png@01D235DF.2C8D90E0] Division of
