Description

Butterflies and moths (rama-rama) are insects belonging to the order Lepidoptera, or 'scale-winged insects' (lepis, scales and pteron, wings).
In simple terms, butterflies are distinguished from moths aka night butterflies based on their active time and physical characteristics. Butterflies are generally active during the day (diurnal), while moths are mostly active at night (nocturnal). Butterflies rest or perch by straightening their wings, moths perch by spreading their wings. Butterflies usually have beautiful brilliant colors, moths tend to be dark, dull or gray. However, there are always exceptions to these differences, so they cannot scientifically be used as a definitive guide
