So, yeah, pupae essentially eat themselves.

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

This cleans them and kills the pupa inside.

这会清洁它们并杀死里面的。

One more molt exposes the hard exterior of the pupa.

又一次蜕皮后，的坚硬外壳显露出来。

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

抱着宝宝的我 我叫沃。

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

同时，第一层皮肤下方形成了一个被称为皮的第二层皮肤。

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

我认为毛毛虫能够五周的时间里经历一次进入的经历，这真太神奇了。

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

马修·布：他绝对第一个对进行非常清晰的解剖的人。

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

苍蝇，和大多数昆虫一样，经历幼虫和的阶段，完成从卵到成虫的完全蜕变。

It's during metamorphosis in the pupa or chrysalis that really the scales are emerging, and the colors happen.

正或的变态过程中， 鳞片才真正出现，颜色也才显现出来。

Now If you've ever stared a pupa for long enough, you may have been a bit underwhelmed.

现，如果你曾经盯着看足够长的时间，你可能有点不知所措。

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

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

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

“令我们惊讶的，我们发现看护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：所以我们要用镊子状的剪刀… … 莫莉：… … 穿过的外层，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.

一种超级酷的生物，字面上从一种形态进化到另一种形态——其中很多会过程中形成美丽金属质感的。

And then, the caterpillar decides to take its midlife break in its chrysalis, which is dark and gooey and solitary, but it's also where the transformation happens.

然后， 毛毛虫决定它的里度过中年假期，那里又黑又黏还很孤独，但也发生蜕变的地方。

If you prefer a little color, they also have this nice light sage color that makes you feel like you're sleeping in your own bright springy chrysalis.

如果你喜欢有点颜色，他们还有一种很不错的浅鼠尾草绿色，让你感觉像睡自己明亮而蓬松的中。

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.

所以那个阶段，它们不有一个看起来像毛毛虫的新皮肤，下一层皮肤实际上由阶段的几丁质制成的角质层。
