Lookit this Chrysalis I found

[Anniekay]

It was lying in the grass under my red oak tree. Anyone know what could have been inside? I tried looking for it online but didn't find it.

Could it be a Monarch buttery chrysalis that got "knocked" down prematurely during a cycle?

It isn't smooth like the ones you linked. The shape is right, though. It is like a thick newsprint and looks like it is made with thin cardboard leaves glued together. Weird thing.

No, can't find anything with the same color and texture. It's almost like the texture of buckskin, very soft with a slight nap to it.
