The chrysalis in silk refers to the pupal stage of the silk moth (Bombyx mori), during which the caterpillar transforms into an adult moth. Inside the chrysalis, the caterpillar undergoes significant biological changes, developing the structures needed for its adult form. This stage is crucial for silk production, as it is during the pupation process that the silk fibers are harvested when the chrysalis is still intact. The process of spinning silk occurs before the caterpillar enters the chrysalis, creating a protective cocoon around itself.
The larval form of a butterfly is properly called a caterpillar. When the caterpillar enters the pupae stage, it will form a chrysalis around itself for protection during metamorphosis.
