A chrysalis is a fancy name for butterfly and moth pupae. You probably know them as cocoons. Not all butterflies and moths make a silk cocoon. They may have a smooth, colorful, or even a clear chrysalis instead. Insects can have two types of eyes, simple eyes and compound eyes .
Some insects have both types while other insects have only one type or the other.
Simple eyes are a lot like your eyes and insects that have them see the world just like you do. Compound eyes are like thousands of little eyes working together to form one image. This helps them see their prey better. Look at the picture of the fly's compound eye to the right. They usually have four wings, but flies have two wings.
