The Adonis Blue butterfly is found in the United Kingdom and European Countries. The Adonis Blue's scientific name is Lyandra Bellargus and is in the family of the Lycaenidae Family of butterflies. I have been seaching many websites and still can not find an answer to the Adonis Blue's lifespan, once a butterfly how many months will it live?

From my searches it looks like they live about 2 months. Check the table in the link below to see.

Caterpillars- cause they become beautiful butterflies, just like a sixteen year old is considered becoming a young lady!

I don't think it can be found in the USA. It is found in Chile, Peru, and Argentina, and can cause extreme illness when it bites. While this species doesn't live in the USA, reletives of it do. L. deserta and L. reclusa live in many states, and could be confused with the one you are talking about. While it hasn't been documented in the USA in any of the books I have, it is still possible.

Instars are numbered by molts they go through.  A 5th instar larva has gone through 5 molts.  This naming can be used for both nymphs and larvae.  A newly eclosed larva that hasn't gone through any molts is a neonate.

You are describing a green caterpillar, though not all caterpillars are green (some are brown, orange, and many others) but they all look of similar shape and texture and so soft to touch despite its roughness. Please note that some caterpillars have light sensitive cells called chromatophores. When reflected light hits these cells, they undergo a chemical change that causes them to match the color of that light. So to say ,some caterpillars take its color to the place of its location. That is why many caterpillars you see are green due to the green light color from the plants.\n\nWhat you are describing is like these:\nhttp://botit.botany.wisc.edu/images/veg/Oak_Forest_2/Polyphemus_w_caterpillar_VK.jpg\nhttp://www.oeb.harvard.edu/faculty/pierce/stock%20pictures/caterpillar-stairs-lg.jpg\n\nDifferent color caterpillars:\nhttp://www.arkive.org/media/6573C013-2728-4AA2-838F-65FA2415A2F8/Presentation.Large/%09%09%09%09%09%09%09%09%09%09large-Swallowtail-caterpillar.jpg\nhttp://www.jtbutterflies.com/NewFiles/Butterflyprints/images/Monarch%20Caterpillar.jpg\nhttp://www.mediatinker.com/blog/images/oita-caterpillar.jpg\nhttp://www.ferrousland.com/photolog/images/2000/12/caterpillar.jpg\n\nThe first answerer had provided you a link that shows different green caterpillars so you are the best one who can say which caterpillar you are asking for.\nHope you enjoyed with the caterpillars!♥

eyelids... :-)\n\nSome species of moth do not have a digestive system; therefore, the adult moth does not eat. An example is the cecropia moth -- and fittingly, it only lives for a few days -- hopefully to mate.

In insects that exhibit paurometabolous or hemimetabolous metamorphsosis (an 'incomplete' metamorhphosis in which there is no pupal stage), the juvenile stage (between egg and adult) is known as a nymph.  In aquatic forms, like dragonflies or mayflies, it is also sometimes referred to as a naeid.\n\nBTW:  Why is this in Earth Science?

The head of Death is right at the top of the moth, I actually have one right now. It's still a caterpillar, buried itself under some soil. It stays and cuccoons for about 2 or 3 weeks until it's ready to fly and search for nectar and honey to eat, they're very cool:)

This past summer the wife and I took a trip to NC. Spruce Pine to be precise. We went "Rock Hounding" or "Gem Mining" at place called  Gem Mountain.\n\nhttp://www.gemmountain.com/aquamarine.htm\n\nWhile at Gem Mountain we purchased one bucket of minerals and mined at their Aquamarine mine near by.\n\nWe found some nice specimens, but one in particular stuck a nerve, The image of this Aquamarine is posted at my site, Take a look:\n\nhttp://my.opera.com/TheMineralExchange/albums/showpic.dml?album=157930&picture=2347315\n\nOk.. so after viewing the image, Aquamarine's stats are as follows:\nA) : Green-blue\nB) : White\nC) : 2.63-2.91\nD) : 7 1/2-8\nE) : Hexagonal\nF) : Imperfect\nG) : Conchoidal, Uneven, Brittle.\n\nHey Teacher?. did I pass?

Medicinally, it has been used as an astringent and to treat menstrual dysfunction (although I'm not sure how effective it is).  Magically, its used for protection, fidelity, longevity, and transformation of grief.  In some (probably older) versions of the Aphrodite-Adonis myth, the flower which springs from Adonis's blood is amaranth rather than anemone - which makes sense since Adonis was originally analogous to the Semetic dying-and-rising (and therefore immortal) God Tammuz.

I'll tell you specifically, since I am from Addis myself. It is found in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. The National Museum on a street called '5 Kilo' right next to the Addis Ababa University, School of Pharmacy and Graduate Studies or right in front of a restaurant called 'Blue Tops'.\n\nLucy was discoveredin a place called Hadar in Afar, Ethiopia and that is why the scientific name 'Australopethicus afarensis' was given.

Pinworm's scientific name is Enterobius vermicularis, so you can google that to get some good info.  Here is a quick sheet from the CDC:\n\nhttp://www.cdc.gov/ncidod/dpd/parasites/pinworm/factsht_pinworm.htm\n\nHope that helps!

>>>>>Is the butterfly that flutters its wings before a hurricane just a metaphor?\n\nNo, it really exists. I suggest you go out and kill the bloody thing before it causes any more hurricanes.

Well, some do and some probably do not. It is just like asking somebody if they remember being born or being a baby. You really can't remember. But, a lot of people can remember childhood and being a toddler.\n\nThey probably do remember muching leaves and turning into a butterfly, but no one really knows for sure, right?\n\nI'm sure they wouldn't think caterpillars are a different species because they used to be caterpillars. That's like someone saying,"I think babies are a different species then humans." You know that you used to be a baby. Even if you only remember bits and pieces.\n\nI hope this has helped you!
