How and Where Can You Find Common yeoman at Different Life Stages
Egg Common yeoman eggs are typically laid on the underside of host plant leaves. To locate these, carefully inspect suitable host plants, paying close attention to the undersides of leaves for small, round or oval eggs that may be in clusters or rows.
Larva Common yeoman larvae can often be found on or near their host plants. Seek out these plants and look for signs of feeding, such as chewed leaves, and search for caterpillars that blend in with the plant materials.
Pupal Common yeoman pupae or chrysalises can be located by searching the host plants or nearby structures where the larva may have wandered to pupate. Look for the camouflaged chrysalises attached to stems, leaves, or other surfaces.
Adult Adult common yeoman are most commonly found near flowering plants where they feed on nectar. Search in gardens, meadows, or forests where these types of plants are abundant. Walking slowly and watching for their flight movements can lead to successful sightings.
