rn
rnThe Common Crow or Oleander Butterfly has a distinctive silvery pupa (chrysalis) that can often be found on oleander bushes and gardens during summertime. The adult butterfly is easily recognised by its dark brown wings that are spotted white.
rn
rnThe adult butterflies have dark brown to black wings with white spots along the margins. The wingspan is about 7 cm across. The male's forewing has a bow-shaped hind margin, while the female's is straight.
rn
rnThe adult butterflies only have four normal legs, as the first pair of legs is not fully developed (a common feature of the Family Nymphalidae).
rn
rnThe larvae (caterpillars) are orange-brown with a dark underside, with each segment striped black and white across the top. The sides of the caterpillar have a white band or series of white spots. Eight paired fleshy appendages ('tentacles') are found on the upper side of the second, third, fifth and eighth segments. The caterpillars grow to 5.7 cm long.
rn
rnThe pupa (chrysalis) is stout (about 1.8 cm long) and shiny, reflecting silver to gold.
