Butterfly pupa on a leaf
(feddit.dk)
Monarch pupa to be precise
Looks like a pokemon
beautiful colours
I was just gonna say that. love the colors!
I wonder, does this indicate monarch larvae are colorblind, or just that there were no green plants near enough when the time came to pupate? Or maybe it's relying on predators to know monarchs taste yucky....
