  1. brush-footed butterfly

    Brush-footed butterfly is a common name for butterflies from the family Nymphalidae, one of the largest families of butterflies with about 6,000 species distributed throughout most of the world. These butterflies are named for their reduced forelegs that are often hairy and resemble brushes, which lead them to stand on only four legs, giving the appearance of having only four legs. These butterflies vary greatly in size, color, and wing patterns. Some common examples of brush-footed butterflies include monarchs, emperors, admirals, and fritillaries.
