Butterfly

Butterfly

Description:

Butterflies are insects in the macrolepidopteran clade Rhopalocera from the order Lepidoptera, which also includes moths. Adult butterflies have large, often brightly coloured wings, and conspicuous, fluttering flight. The group comprises the large superfamily Papilionoidea, which contains at least one former group, the skippers.

Habitat:

The last count of the different species of butterflies topped out at eighteen thousand butterflies and while a lot of those species can be found in tropical and humid places like California, Hawaii, and Mexico, there are a lot of butterflies that migrate over two thousand miles so they are staying in a warmer climate
