Ok, now it's Aporia crataegi since fell off an ashberry tree...

It's clear just as it "fell off an ashberry tree".

Whoa, highly curious turn! Thanks!

This is an Aporia crataegi pupa.

So how much it takes for it to emerge? One week passed with no changes shown from it.

Why "unlucky"? Pupae are able to move, this one just hasn't emerged yet.
