Tropical Butterflies That Eat Pollen Live Three Times Longer Than Their Relatives
A study published in Nature Communications in June 2026 found that Heliconius butterflies, which uniquely feed on pollen as adults, live on average three times longer than their closest relatives. The longest-lived species, Heliconius hewitsoni, survived up to 348 days in captivity, compared to just 14 days for the shortest-lived relative. Researchers believe that pollen-derived amino acids fuel cellular repair processes that dramatically slow biological aging.
