    So today I saw a Monach butterfly looking thing, but it was only about 1cm long. I’m under the impression butterflies come out of the chrysalis the size that they stay. Anyone know what I might have seen?

        Hmm, maybe, but the sizes don’t seem right. I’d guess maybe the painted lady, but it was very small, not near 5cm. I’d guess 1cm high and 2cm wide as a maximum. These state maximum sizes, maybe I just saw a smaller one?

        It might have been! Unfortunately I didn’t get long enough of a look, and definitely not enough time for a photo.
