A brief introduction to the process of butterfly eggs to larvae

The life cycle of a butterfly.

It is 9 months, and its growth process is that of an oval caterpillar.

Pupae butterflies. The details are as follows: 1. Butterfly eggs The eggs of butterflies are generally round or oval, with a waxy shell on the surface, which plays a role in preventing water evaporation.

Butterflies lay their eggs on the leaves of plants to prepare food for the larvae born later. 2. The larvae born of butterfly larvae are mostly flesh insects, and a few are caterpillars, with different shapes. During the growth process, the larvae need to eat a large number of green leaves, and they also have to go through several molts to gradually mature.

3. After the butterfly pupa larvae mature, they will fix themselves with a few strands in a hidden place, such as the back of the leaf, and then pupate. 4. After the adult pupa matures, the butterfly will break out of the pupa shell, and the butterfly that has just come out of the pupa needs time to stretch and harden its immature wings, and then it can spread its wings and fly.

The growth process of a butterfly needs to go through four stages: fertilized egg, larva, pupae and adult, as follows:

1. Fertilized egg.

Different species of butterflies have different egg sizes, and they are generally laid on the foliage of plants.

2. Larvae. After the larvae hatch, they need to eat a lot of food, usually from the leaves of the plant, and go through several peels as they grow.

3. Pupa. After the larvae reach maturity, they use silk to fix themselves and become pupa, which is usually located in a relatively hidden place on the back of the leaves of the plant.

4. Adults. When the pupa is ripe, the butterfly will emerge from the pupae. However, it takes a certain amount of time for the wings to dry and harden, after which they can fly freely.

Distribution:

Butterflies are known to be distributed in all regions of the world, with the Neotropics, Indo-Australia, and Tropical Africa having the most species. Among them, the neotropical region, mainly in the Amazon River basin of South America, is the most concentrated, and the tropical rainforests and rich vegetation in this region give birth to one-third of the world's butterflies.

Many beautiful and ornamental butterflies are also found in Brazil, Peru and other countries in South America. This is followed by the Oriental and Australian regions, where the world's IUCN protected species, such as the golden-banded beaked butterfly and the bird-winged butterfly, are located.

There are more than 2,200 species of butterflies in China and more than 2,500 species in India. There are only more than 450 species of butterflies in Australia. Papua New Guinea is home to more than 1,200 species of butterflies.

The third is the African Zone, where the lowland rainforests are home to more than 4,000 species of beautiful butterflies.

Summary. Hello dear. The eggs of butterflies need to become larvae, and the fertilized eggs of small butterflies (less than 8 cm) need to hatch for 2 4 days, the larval stage is 1 2 weeks, and the pupal stage can be less than 1 week to become a butterfly. Medium butterflies (8 15 cm) fertilize eggs in 3-5 days.

Hello dear. The eggs of butterflies become large and bright into larvae, which need to be generally small (less than 8cm), and the fertilized eggs of butterflies need to hatch in 2 4 days, the larval stage is 1 2 weeks, and the pupal stage can be less than 1 week to emerge into butterflies. Medium butterfly (8 15 cm) fertilized eggs take 3 to 5 days to hold.

Kiss. The growth cycle of all kinds of butterflies is different, the eggs hatch and dress up as larvae are determined by the temperature, some butterflies lay eggs in autumn, and the eggs will hatch in the spring of the next year, and the larvae pupate in the summer, and become a butterfly in the autumn, of course, if you forcibly put the eggs under the bulb to roast, it will also hatch. It generally takes about 3-4 months for larvae to pupae, pupae to adults are not necessarily, if the temperature is suitable, the speed is fast, and there are many caterpillars that become pupae in autumn for winter, and feathers into butterflies in spring, and then lay eggs, the eggs will hatch into larvae when the temperature is suitable, and then pupate in autumn.

Butterflies lay eggs in their own way, and they never lay their eggs indiscriminately, most commonly on the opposite side of the leaves. Generally, it is one per seed, such as citrus butterfly. There are also those that lay eggs in patches, such as the silk pink butterfly.

The eggs laid by many butterflies on plants have their own specific parts and special arrangements, such as the eggs of the beaked butterfly laid on the buds of the tree; The eggs of the pod gray butterfly are laid at the base of the lentil buds; The butterfly lays a large number of eggs on the branches of the poplar tree, and they are arranged in a regular manner, winding in a ring; What's more interesting is that the eggs of the butterfly are often 4 or 5, or as many as a dozen of them, and accumulate in strings.

There are also butterflies that lay their eggs on other objects near the host plant, such as the tailless silver clam butterfly. Sometimes the female butterfly lays eggs not directly on the leaves of the host plant - Ma Lan, etc., but indirectly lays the eggs on the branches about half a meter above the host plant, when the larvae hatch out of the eggs, soon, they will spit out a hairspring and descend, relying on the wind to blow turbulent and reach the leaf surface of the host plant.

Butterflies prefer plants that have a kale flavor, and it often lays eggs on kale. It generally falls on the back of the cabbage leaf, and the abdomen is pouted on the leaf, which is a small pale yellow egg, slender and long, one millimeter long, millimeter thick.
