Butterflies and moths (Lepidoptera) are distinguishable from other winged insects because their wings are covered in scales.
Most butterflies and moths are very colorful. The antenna of butterflies has notches at the end, bent somewhat to look like a golf club. Moths have antennas like cat's whiskers, long and ending in a point.
Butterflies live on the nectar of flowers and, like bees, help with pollination. The average lifespan of a butterfly is three to four weeks. There are about 20,000 species of butterflies, with ten percent of the world's population in Mexico.
