Six days to two weeks is the lifespan of a black and yellow butterfly. The lepidopteran in question (Papilio glaucus) moves through three stages prior to the adult stage as a breeding, nectaring and pollnating flier. The first stage as an egg tends to last four to 10 day whereas the second and third stages as caterpillars and as pupae respectively will take three to four weeks and 10 to 20 days, for a total life cycle and natural history of 41 to 74 days.
