Female that was raised outdoors in a mesh cage eclosed and was released on 10/4/2020.

The caterpillar started pupating when it was about 75% of the size of the typical caterpillar at that stage. I wasn't sure if it would survive, but once it eclosed, it looked like a normal butterfly, maybe a little bit on the small size. It didn't seem very strong, but then improved when I let it sit in the sun for a minute.
