Macaone: the wetsuit from caterpillar to chrysalis [Video]

l bruco della farfalla Macaone, dopo essersi cibato avidamente della pianta nutrice, smette di mangiare, si libera di un liquido verdastro ed inizia a muoversi alla ricerca del luogo migliore per trasfomarsi in crisalide. Una volta trovato questo posto, tipicamente su un ramo o su una parete, fissa la parte inferiore del proprio corpo al supporto con un piccolo ma tenace ancoraggio di seta e tesse un robusto filo di seta dietro al proprio dorso. Trascorse 24-48 ore dal momento in cui si è legato compie la muta da bruco a crisalide che vi mostro in questo video.

Congratulations, but I have a curiosity, did you then also film the flickering?

Thank you Camillo and Andrea!
For flickering I will still have to be patient a few days and cross my fingers!

Truly remarkable. How long did it take to complete the whole transformation?

Thanks Ulysses! When it starts to move, the molt is completed in a short time, we talk about a few minutes ... I have to look back at the original video to give you a precise value. The problem is that obviously you don't know when it starts and so you need to shoot for several hours to catch the transformation.
