BUTTERFLIES

Lepidoptera are an order of insects whose adult form is called a butterfly, the larva is a caterpillar, and the pupa is a chrysalis. It is one of the most widespread orders of insects in the world, comprising between 150,000 and 174,000 described species.
In the adult state, they are characterized by three pairs of legs and two pairs of wings covered with scales of very varied colors depending on the species.

Butterflies are found all over the world, but each butterfly has its own distribution area. Some species are sedentary, others spread out, and others are migratory over more or less long distances.
