Seems like a pretty quick turnover rate, especially if the elder in Sea Monster isn't the same as the offspring from vs. Mothra/GTTHM...
I always took it as such: Mothra Larva -> Adult (
Mothra). That Adult is the same adult in
Mothra vs. Godzilla. The surviving Larva (fairies say the other died) is in
Ghidorah. It has matured to an Adult for
Sea Monster. DAM is set in 1999, which is some 30ish years later than all of these so it's an entirely different Mothra generation.
I would think the same. But if the offspring are male and the adult is a she in Sea Monster, we'd be potentially looking at another.
Unless, of course, Mothra becomes female in the process of entering imago form (as some animals do change in nature); it would make sense for perpetuation issues, since the Mothra species is so small, if the adult always transitions to a fertile (perhaps self-fertilized during the cocooned transition process; essentially, Imago emerges pregnant) female that lays an egg, hence perpetuating the species only with a single member.
Y'know, unless the new eggs just form out of glowing sparkles like in the ROM trilogy.
