Life Cycle of Zusidava serratilinea
Egg The round or oval eggs of zusidava serratilinea are often laid on plant leaves. They possess a hard outer shell to protect the developing embryo. The color may vary, usually blending with the environment to avoid predation.
Larva Following hatching, the larva, often called a caterpillar, has a segmented body with a distinct head and chewing mouthparts. It undergoes several molts, growing larger and sometimes changing color with each stage.
Pupal The larva of zusidava serratilinea forms a chrysalis during the pupal stage. The organism is immobile and undergoes significant transformation. The pupa may exhibit cryptic coloration for camouflage.
Adult Emerging from the pupa, the adult zusidava serratilinea’s development is marked by the presence of wings and reproductive organs. The body is fully formed with hardened exoskeleton. The adult focuses on reproduction and may disperse.
