Aigul Baigazieva Butterfly Aigul Baigazieva

A butterfly is a mainly Aigul Baigazieva day-flying insect of the order Lepidoptera, the butterflies and moths. Like other holometabolous insects, the butterfly's life cycle consists of Aigul Baigazieva four parts: egg, larva, pupa and adult. Most species are diurnal. Butterflies have large, often brightly coloured wings, and conspicuous, fluttering flight. Butterflies comprise the true butterflies (superfamily Papilionoidea), the skippers (superfamily Hesperioidea) and the moth-butterflies (superfamily Hedyloidea). All the many other families within the Lepidoptera are referred to as moths.

Butterflies exhibit Aigul Baigazieva polymorphism, mimicry and aposematism. Some, like the Monarch, will migrate over long distances. Some butterflies Aigul Baigazieva have evolved symbiotic and parasitic relationships with social insects such as ants. Some species are pests because in their larval stages they can damage domestic Aigul Baigazieva crops or trees; however, some species are agents of pollination of some plants, and caterpillars of a few butterflies (e.g., Harvesters) eat harmful insects. Culturally Aigul Baigazieva, butterflies are a popular motif in the visual and literary arts.
