How long does a single checker spot butterfly live
2to4weeks
tweenty days
10 days
It is known to live for a day then die. I am not sure whether or not it is true.
As long as a regular butterfly. They die after they lay eggs!
The red admiral butterfly lives about 10 mouths or so.
Painted butterfly's live for approximetly 54 days, (thats their whole lifespan, egg - butterfly) but when there a butterfly only 14 days, (2 weeks)
butterfly fish live longer in the wild if you keep them they most likey will live 3-5 years they make really really good pets too !!!!!

A day represents a different portion of A butterfly's life depending on the species of butterfly. There are some species that only live a few weeks as adult butterflies, and others that live for months ( like the mourning cloak, monarch, and compton's tortoiseshell). That would make each day range from being almost 4 "butterfly years" to less than half a "butterfly year". If you consider the entire time that a butterfly lives from egg to adult, the question becomes even more difficult. Some single- brooded species live only a month or so from the time they hatch as a caterpillar to the time they die as adults. Some Arctic species live for 2 years, but they spend most of that time in estivation, and only exist for a month or so as an adult butterfly. That would mean that a day is less than a tenth of a "butterfly year" if you count the entire time the insect is alive, from the time it hatches as a caterpillar. Essentially, a butterfly is just a caterpillar's means of reproduction, so the time they spend as adult butterflies is not really an accurate representation of how long their lives really are. Most of a butterfly's life is not really spent as a butterfly.
