There are 320 species present in Europe, at least 112 are endemic. There are four stages in the butterfly life cycle from egg (ovum), to caterpillar
Geographic monarch butterflies travel up to 3,000 miles each fall to their wintering site in central Mexico. In 2004, an estimated 550 million completed the winter migration, while in 2003 only 33 million arrived. Further, between 2012 and 2013, there was a 43.7 percent decrease in the area occupied by the butterflies in the winter sanctuaries, the decline has numerous reasons: climate change, deforestation, and habitat loss, agricultural use of pesticides and herbicides Monarch butterflies are known for
Life Cycle of a Butterfly Life cycle of an animal is as a unit of biological time concept, showing and describing the developments that occur in an animal.
