    Steven,
    The widely famous and popular Sparkle Dun assumes is indeed a "TRAILING" shuck. Mathews and Jurack patterned it after the floating insects they saw still trying to escape their shucks.
    What do you think?

    Last summer I caught such an insect and photographed it. It's shuck was "trailing"
