The Tsumaki butterfly, which pupated in early May 2020, has hatched. It has spent a total of 23 months in dormancy. This is the longest in my breeding record. Last year, it did not hatch, and I wondered if it had died, but the Internet shows records of three years of dormancy, so I kept an eye on it. It is truly amazing to think about the power of life in a thorn-like tiny life form.
