Anna71 [15]

A lepidopteran caterpillar that responds to being prodded, squeezed, or otherwise disturbed by producing a y-shaped, odiferous (smelly) osmeteria is a swallowtail butterfly caterpillar.

<h3>Do Lepidoptera pose a threat?</h3>

In general, moths are calm animals. They just keep to themselves and don't attack or try to harm anyone. In contrast to ants, spiders, and wasps, they do neither bite or sting. They do harm the economy, and having them around the house is certainly annoying.

<h3>Do every caterpillar develop into a butterfly?</h3>

There are numerous caterpillars that change into moths rather than butterflies. There aren't any other exceptions to this rule, though. Every caterpillar will eventually change into either a butterfly or a moth, or both!

<h3>Lepidoptera are they pests?</h3>

Due of their impact as agricultural pests, more species of the taxonomic group Lepidoptera are regarded to be economically significant.
