Butterflies and moths vary in size from microlepidoptera only a few millimetres long, to a wingspan of many inches such as the Atlas moth. Comprising over 160,000 described species, the Lepidoptera possess variations of the basic body structure which has evolved to gain advantages in adaptation and distribution.
Butterflies have appeared in art from 3500 years ago in ancient Egypt.

They also were suggestive of regeneration or rebirth and protection.
