Monarch butterfly (Danus plexippus) deposits egg on milkweed plant. The white eggs are about the size of pinheads. Monarch females deposit their eggs on milkweed plants so that their young will have a food source when they hatch. Monarchs undergo complete metamorphosis which includes four stages: egg, larva, pupa, and adult. Its metamorphosis is among the most well-documented of any insect. | |
