A pupa or chrysalis.
Chrysalis or pupa.
The correct spelling is "chrysalis" (insect pupa within a cocoon).
The new butterfly slowly nudged its way out of the chrysalis. The future butterfly was first found in the shape and form of a chrysalis prior to it's upcoming metamorphosis into a winged and beautiful insect .
A chrysalis is a cocoon containing the pupal stage of a flying insect.
This is likely the word cocoon (an insect's woven metamorphosis wrap, chrysalis).
This is called a pupa (or sometimes a chrysalis)
The correct spelling of the biology term is "chrysalis" (hard covering of an insect pupa).
Do you mean cocoons as in the chrysalis phase of insect growth. Yes, assuredly there are these in Africa.
Depending on the species, it can take anywhere from a few weeks to many months. Arctic species often spend close to a year in the chrysalis before emerging. Keep in mind though that the caterpillar is not "in the chrysalis." The caterpillar forms the chrysalis inside of itself when it is fully grown, then sheds its skin to become the chrysalis. A chrysalis therefore is not like a cocoon containing an insect; it is the insect.
It takes 7 - 11 days for the chrysalis to turn into a butterfly.
The name for that is Larva.
