The pupal stage may last weeks, months, or even years, depending on temperature and the species of insect. [3] [4] For example, the pupal stage lasts eight to fifteen days in monarch butterflies. [5] The pupa may enter dormancy or diapause until the appropriate season to emerge as an adult insect.

The pupa stage overwinters in the bark and leaf litter at the base of the trees. It is dark brown and about 10 mm long. The thin brown cocoon is made of silk with ...
About 24 hours after fertilization, an egg hatches into a larva, which undergoes three molts taking about 5.5 to 6 days, after which it is called a pupa. The pupa metamorphoses into an adult fly, which takes about 3.5 to 4.5 days. The entire growth process from egg to adult fly takes an estimated 10 to 12 days to complete at 25 °C. [2]

The subimago stage does not survive for long, rarely for more than 24 hours. In some species, it may last for just a few minutes, while the mayflies in the family Palingeniidae have sexually mature subimagos and no true adult form at all. [1]
