| pupa |
(more than one = pupae) - The third stage of life for insects (1 = egg, 2 = larva, 3 = pupa, 4 = adult). An insect larva changes into a pupa in order to make a final change into an adult insect. This is a resting stage where the insect usually doesn't move around or eat. With moths, the pupa is called a "coccoon." With butterflies, it is a "chrysalis." For most insects, we just call it a "pupa."
