The eggs of most butterflies, and of insects in general, are laid in autumn, in temperate climates, and remain unchanged until the followmg spring. During this time, the principle of life in the egg is not extinct, bu
...t is simply inactive, or in a latent state. This tenacity of life is displayed in a still more striking manner in plants.
