The butterfly's pupa stage is spent inside a cocoon
The life cycle of the butterfly is quite fascinating, They go from egg, to caterpillar, to chrysalis, to butterfly. The time it takes to go from stage to stage depends on the type of butterfly.
how long does the Ulysses butterfly spend in each stage
Adult
The first stage of the cycle is an egg then the egg hatches and it becomes and caterpillar which technical word is larva then it turns into a chrysalis or a pupa and then turns into a butterfly. The eggs are laid on the underside of milkweed leaves. The butterfly and the larva is found in open meadows, gardens and much, much more.There are four stages in the life cycle of a butterfly. The first stage is the egg. From the egg comes a caterpillar. Then the chrysalis develops. The last stage is the butterfly. Typically a butterfly lives for about two weeks.
That's the pupal stage-the caterpillar undergoes metamorphosis and adult butterfly emerges.
Well I think it's the adult stage because in a life cycle of butterfly it shows an adult then an egg so that's why I think it's butterfly.:)

Monarch butterflies go through a four stage development cycle in their lifespans. The four stages of the monarch butterfly are the egg, the caterpillar or larvae, the chrysalis or pupa, and the butterfly.
The butterfly goes through many stages in its lifetime. It is only during the cocoon stage, that it stops eating completely.
Caterpillars the larva, Caterpillar, cocoon, butterfly.
The adult stage, because butterflies are helpful pollinators.
