  3. Butterfly - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Butterfly

    Life cycle of the monarch butterfly. Butterflies in their adult stage can live from a week to nearly a year depending on the species. Many species have long larval life stages while others can remain dormant in their pupal or egg stages and thereby survive winters. [36] The Melissa Arctic (Oeneis melissa) overwinters twice as a caterpillar. [37]

  4. Morpho peleides - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Morpho_peleides

    The entire blue morpho butterfly life cycle, from egg to adult is only 115 days. This butterfly undergoes metamorphosis from larva to butterfly. The larva eats plant leaves before spinning a chrysalis. Flower nectar, which is available later in the year, is used by the butterfly. A recent study also discovered that during transformation, the ...

  5. Papilio rutulus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Papilio_rutulus

    The caterpillar undergoes metamorphosis and emerges a butterfly. In the adult stage, within a few hours of emerging, the butterfly's wings dry and expand, allowing it to fly. During this stage, the butterfly focuses on reproduction and finding a mate. Once the female is fertilized, the cycle begins again.

  6. Monarch butterfly - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monarch_Butterfly

    The life cycle of the monarch butterfly. Like all Lepidoptera, monarchs undergo complete metamorphosis; their life cycle has four phases: egg, larva, pupa, and adult. Monarchs transition from eggs to adults during warm summer temperatures in as little as 25 days, extending to as many as seven weeks during cool spring conditions.

  7. Morpho menelaus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Morpho_menelaus

    Adult emergence occurs primarily in the beginning of the wet season, when the climate and air humidity makes food resources plentiful and oviposition advantageous. [5] The butterfly spends 3 to 4 weeks as an adult, and the entire life cycle is about 115 days. Adults fly along rivers, or anywhere that open land has been revealed. [9]

  8. Euptoieta claudia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euptoieta_claudia

    Euptoieta claudia, the variegated fritillary, is a North and South American butterfly in the family Nymphalidae.Even though the variegated fritillary has some very different characteristics from the Speyeria fritillaries, it is still closely related to them.

  9. Lycaenidae - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lycaenidae

    The adult butterfly emerges from the pupa after three to four weeks, still inside the ant nest. The butterfly must crawl out of the ant nest before it can expand its wings. Several evolutionary adaptations enable these associations, including small glands on the skin of the caterpillars called "pore cupola organs".
