While I was taking care of my mango tree and applying fertilizer to it, I suddenly came across a pupa with a very unique and extraordinary shape. This was my first time discovering a pupa like this, and just by looking at its color, I could tell that it was a new or young pupa.

This pupa is bright green, and its color looks very similar to the surrounding leaves. It also has a flat, square or shield-like shape with small, spine-like corners, making it look very much like the part of the leaf where it is attached and making it very difficult to find. This pupa is attached very firmly, and I am really curious about what the butterfly will look like. If its shape is already so unique during the pupal stage, I wonder how beautiful it will be once it becomes a butterfly.To capture the beauty of this pupa, I tried photographing it from several different angles, and the results were very satisfying.

Okay friends, now I will share some pictures of this Pupa here.
