Dear Dhaivat, It would be useful if you could post the name of the book(s) in which you obtained this information. The plants you metioned are the larval food plants, that is, the plants whose leaves/flowers the caterpillars of the butterflies eat. In the adult stage, that is, as butterflies, they feed on flower nectar or fruit juice, so this would be a different category of plants. Female butterflies will be found about the plants you mentioned below, intending to lay eggs. So, if you look hard enough, you will be able to find the eggs. Good luck! Peter
