Life Cycle of Boldly-marked archips moth
Egg The boldly-marked archips moth begins as an egg, which is usually round or oval and may vary in color. The egg serves as a protective layer for the developing larva inside.
Larva After hatching, the larval boldly-marked archips moth appears worm-like and is primarily focused on consuming food for growth. Throughout this stage, boldly-marked archips moth regularly molts its exoskeleton as it increases in size.
Pupal The boldly-marked archips moth enters the pupal stage enveloped in a cocoon, undergoing drastic transformation. Body structures are rearranged, and tissues differentiate to form adult features.
Adult Emerging from the pupa, the adult boldly-marked archips moth's development is marked by the presence of wings and functional reproductive organs. The body is fully formed and hardened, and the adult is mobile, focusing on reproduction.
