A lavrae means young butterflies and moths. The cocoon is the pupae stage that they go through to become adults through metamorphosis.
A dormant stage called a pupae.
Metamorphosis is what is special about caterpillars. The animals in question represent the larval stage of lepidopterans. They serve as the transition between the shell-encased eggs and the cocoon-enshrouded pupae in the life cycles of butterflies and moths.
House flies start out as eggs from which maggots hatch after one day. The maggot stage lasts three to five days; during this stage the maggots spend a lot of time molting. The pupae stage is next and lasts three to six days. The flies are encased in a hard shell somewhat like a butterfly cocoon during the pupae stage. Finally, full grown house flies emerge at the end of the pupae stage.
A butterfly lays eggs, usually on the underside of leaves, which hatch into caterpillars. The caterpillars then feed and grow, forming a chrysalis where they undergo metamorphosis and finally emerge as adult butterflies.
Yes, it is a pupae, or a juvenile stage before it becomes an adult insect.
Maggots are the larval stage of a fly. They undergo metamorphosis, developing into pupae before transforming into adult flies. The pupae stage allows for the complete transformation of the maggot's body structure into that of a fly.
If you have a butterfly garden there is no "baby" stage. This baby stage you are talking about is actually the larval stage better know as the Caterpillar stage.
The second stage in a butterflies' life is caterpillar.
Grasshoppers do but butterflies (the ADULT stage of a caterpillar) do not (the caterpillars do though).
Adult. The life cycle for complete metamorphosis goes: Egg ---> Larvae ---> Pupae ---> Adult
Tiger moth pupae do not eat anything as they are in a non-feeding stage. They spend this time developing and undergoing metamorphosis within a protective cocoon before emerging as adult moths.
