The larva that I found and reported on 7/9/2016, which we then captured and raised inside on a potted swamp milkweed plant for its protection, J-hooked on 7/15, became a chrysalis on 7/16, and emerged as a female butterfly (photo attached) yesterday (7/24). We released her under sunny, breezy skies this afternoon. This is our first capture and release this year.
