This is a very diverse family of true butterflies, and they occur everywhere except the polar ice caps. Their unifying characteristic is the reduced fore legs of both males and females. These vestigial fore legs are useless for walking and give rise to the family's common name. Brush-footed butterflies also have large prominent knobs at the tips of their antennae, and furry palpi. This family incorporates the admirals, fritillaries, checkerspots, crescentspots, anglewings, leafwings, painted ladies, tortoiseshells and longwings.

    I am very pleased to announce that in conjunction with Representative Todd A. Eachus, 116th Legislative District, Pennsylvania we are launching a campaign to have the Regal Fritillary named as Pennsylvania’s official state butterfly. Representative Eachus has seized this opportunity to introduce legislation into the House to help us attain our goal in honoring not only our departed veterans but also this wonderful butterfly and all Pennsylvanians. Please read the reasons why we feel that the Regal Fritillary would make the right choice as Pennsylvania’s official state butterfly. If you would like to help us achieve our goal please contact Rep. Eachus to show your support. Thank you very much.

    Photo of a Monarch butterfly on milkweed
    Photo of a Milkweed Plant The monarch butterfly is sometimes called the "milkweed butterfly" because its larvae eat the plant. In fact, milkweed is the only thing the larvae can eat! If you'd like to attract monarchs to your garden, you can try planting milkweed (if you live in the right area). You can purchase milkweed seed online from Butterfly Encounters close window when done purchasing to return to this screen Adult female monarchs lay their eggs on the underside of milkweed leaves. These eggs hatch, depending on temperature, in three to twelve days. The larvae feed on the plant leaves for about two weeks and develop into caterpillars about 2 inches long.

    HOW TO MAKE BUTTERFLY GARDENS
    by Stephanie Bailey, Extension Specialist
    University of Kentucky College of Agriculture
    Nectar Preferences
    Different species of butterflies have different preferences of nectar, in both colors and tastes. A wide variety of food plants will give the greatest diversity of visitors. Try staggering wild and cultivated plants, as well as blooming times of the day and year. Groups of the same plants will be easier for butterflies to see than singly planted flowers. Some varieties of flowers which are easy to find and grow in Kentucky, and will be attractive to many species of butterflies include:
    Aster
    Black-eyed Susan
    Butterfly weed
    Coreopsis
    Daylilies
    Goldenrod
    Hibiscus
    Lavender
    Lilac Marigold Butterfly Bush Oxeye Daisies Purple Coneflower Redbud Rosemary Verbena
    Other Attractants
    Another way to attract adult butterflies to your yard is to offer places (food plants) for females to lay their eggs. Some females are pickier about which host to lay their eggs on than others. A few specific examples of butterflies and their host plants are listed at the end of this fact sheet.

The four wings and the six legs of the butterfly are attached to the thorax. The thorax contains the muscles that make the legs and wings move. DESCRIPTION Egg : Spherical, ridged and white.

    Biology
    The transformation of the frequently ugly or bizarre caterpillar into an elegant butterfly – is truly one of the regularly performed miracles of Nature. All butterflies have "complete metamorphosis." To grow into an adult they go through 4 stages: egg, larva, pupa and adult. Each stage has a different goal – for instance, caterpillars need to eat a lot, and adults need to reproduce. Because the caterpillar and adult eat different kinds of food, this helps the butterflies to better survive. Depending on the species, the life cycle of a butterfly (one generation) may take anywhere from about one month to an entire year. The Monarch Butterfly has 4 entire generations per year. Click for a great Monarch Butterfly Life Cycle Coloring Page
    Migration
    Have you heard of migration of the Monarch butterfly? The monarch butterfly is one of the best known of all North American butterflies because they make annual migrations across America to avoid winter weather. In autumn, tens of millions of Monarch butterflies fly south and roost in huge numbers on trees in selected mountain areas of California and Mexico. Monarch butterflies will use the same trees year after year. The Monarch butterfly migrates for 2 reasons. They can not withstand freezing weather in the northern and central continental climates in the winter. Also, the larval food plants do not grow in their winter overwintering sites, so the spring generation must fly back north to regions where the plants are plentiful. Their journey can cover up to 2,000 miles before it ends! Would you like to help track monarch butterfly migrations? Visit
