It depends on the time of year. If the caterpillar turned into a pupa near the beginning of summer than it would stay in the pupa for two weeks. If the caterpillar pupated near the end of summer or fall, then it will stay in the pupa all winter and hatch next summer.

Do tiger swallowtail butterflies die?

Yes, tiger swallowtail butterflies (Papilio glaucus) die.Specifically, a tiger swallowtail begins as yellow-green egg. It hatches into a caterpillar that is first brown and white and then lime green with yellow eyespots with black pupils and a yellow and black line around the neck. It makes a change into the resting or pupal stage. It transforms into a beautiful butterfly long enough to produce two to three distinct broods that will hatch into the next generation of tiger swallowtail butterflies.

This butterfly fits just fine in the 7.5 x 6.5 case, however the 9.5 x 9.5 offers a more spacious look.
