This is the inside of a chrysalis.

这是蛹的内部。

One more molt exposes the hard exterior of the pupa.

又一次蜕皮暴露了蛹坚硬的外表。

I'm the one holding the Pupa. My name's Korvo.

抱着蛹宝宝的就是我 我叫科沃。

It turns out that plows, livestock, and irrigation excel at destroying locust eggs and crucial locust nymph habitat.

结果，犁、牲畜和灌溉技术的使用摧毁了虫卵和蝗虫关键的蛹居地。

I think it's amazing that a caterpillar can have an experience, go into its chrysalis, five weeks pass.

我认为毛毛虫能够在五周的时间里经历一次进入蛹的经历，这真是太神奇了。

This cleans them and kills the pupa inside.

这会清洁它并杀死里面的蛹。

You see, flies, as with most insects, undergo a complete metamorphosis from egg to adult via a larvae and a pupal stage.

蝇，和大多数昆虫一样，经历幼虫和蛹的阶段，完成从卵到成虫的完全蜕变。

So yeah, a chrysalis is not a silk sleeping bag that they spin and then crawl into.

是的，蛹不是一个丝绸睡袋，它旋转然后爬进去。

So, yeah, pupae essentially eat themselves.

所以，是的，蛹基本上是吃掉了自己。

At the same time, a second skin layer called the pupal cuticle forms underneath the first.

同时，在第一层皮肤下面形成称为蛹角质层的第二层皮肤。

MATTHEW COBB: He was definitely the first to do some very clear dissections of the chrysalis.

马修·科布：他绝对是第一个对蛹进行非常清晰的解剖的人。

" And to our surprise, we found that nurse bees with pupae slept even less than the bees that were housed with feeding larvae."

“令我惊讶的是，我看护蛹的蜜蜂甚至比看护幼蜂的蜜蜂睡得更少。”

So we're taking our tweezer-like scissors ... MOLLY: ... through the outer layer of the Chrysalis until ... MOLLY: Ah!

莫莉：所以我要用镊子状的剪刀… … 莫莉：… … 穿过蛹的外层，直到… … 莫莉：啊！

An awesome creature that literally evolves from one form to another - many of which create beautiful metallic looking chrysalises in the process.

一种真正从一种形式进化到另一种形式的令人敬畏的生物——其中许多在这个过程中创造出美丽的金属外观的蛹。

Over the following weeks, her larva hatches, bores into the cockroach, eats it alive, pupates in its carcass, and emerges as an iridescent adult.

在接下里的几周内，幼虫孵化，钻进蟑螂的躯体，活吃蟑螂，在它的尸体中化蛹，再以成虫的形态闪亮登场。

So at that stage, instead of having a new skin underneath it that looks like a caterpillar, the next skin is really the cuticle made of chitin of that chrysalis stage.

所以在那个阶段，它不是有一个看起来像毛毛虫的新皮肤，下一层皮肤实际上是由蛹阶段的几丁质制成的角质层。

This installation consists of two rooms, one in which live butterflies hatch from pupae embedded in white paintings, and another in which dead butterflies are pressed onto the surfaces of brightly coloured canvasses.

这件组装品包括两个空间，一个放着由嵌在白色油漆中的蛹羽化而成的活蝴蝶，另一个放着被压在鲜艳画布表面上的死蝴蝶。

" And to our surprise, we found that nurse bees with pupae slept even less than the bees that were housed with feeding larvae." These babies, it seemed, needed the bee equivalent of swaddling.

“令我惊讶的是，我带蛹的蜜蜂比带幼虫的蜜蜂睡得更少。 ” 这些婴儿似乎需要蜜蜂的襁褓。

At the same time I laid on the same place a small parcel of the pupae of another species, F. flava, with a few of these little yellow ants still clinging to the fragments of their nest.

同时，我在同一个地方放了一小包另一个物种 F.flava 的蛹， 其中一些黄色的小蚂蚁还粘在它的巢穴碎片上。
