2. Monarch Monarchs have the longest and largest insect migration in North America and some butterflies will travel thousands of kilometres during their short lifespan. Monarchs are true migrants and can be found in many areas of the world. In Canada, their natural habitat includes southern Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, Ontario, Quebec and the Maritimes. The monarch has also been found in other areas of the country, including locations as far north as James Bay.

3. Snow fly Snow fly The Glass Winged Butterfly, better known as the "Snow Fly" due to their fluffy white fur, is a truly beautiful insect. Shimmering and tinkling in the breeze like a natural wind chime, it "shivers" its wings in order to achieve such sounds. Mellow and generally comfortable in the presence of a curious person, this butterfly may even land upon a passerby for no apparent reason. Used to colder climates, it resides mostly in the north, due to the simple fact that their one and only food source is there.

4. Blue morpho The Blue Morpho butterfly (Morpho Menelaus) is a species of neotropical butterfly that has iridescent blue wings (the females are not as brilliantly coloured as the males and have a brown edge with white spots surrounding the iridescent blue area). Adults drink the juices of rotting fruit. The caterpillar of the Blue Morpho is red- brown with bright patches of lime-green on the back, and it eats the plant Erythroxylum pilchrum nocturnally (at night). Blue Morphos live in rainforests from Brazil to Venezuela. Blue Morphos belong to the Family Nymphalidae, Genus Morpho, and species Menelaus.

5. American snout The American Snout(Libytheanaclarinet)is a butterfly that has long labial pulps (moustache-like scaly mouthparts on either side of the proboscis) that look like a long snout. The butterfly has a 1 3/8 - 2 inch (3.5 - 5 cm) wingspan. The front pair of legs on the male (but not the female) are reduced in size. Eggs are laid in groups on the hackberry plant. The caterpillar eats hackberry (celtis); the adult sips nectar of the flowers from asters, dogbane, dogwood, goldenrod, sweet pepperbush, and more. Adult American Snout butterflies look like dead leaves. They sometimes go on long migrations. They are brush- footed butterflies (Family Libytheidae).

6. Southern dogface The southern dogface butterfly, Colias cesonia, is a yellow butterfly that is also known as the dog's head butterfly. The wings are mostly yellow; there is a small dark circle in the center of the forewing and the margins of the wings are black) they look a bit like a dog's face). Males have brighter coloration than females. The wingspan is 2 1/4 - 2 1/2 inches (58-65 cm). The caterpillar is green with black and yellow stripes. This butterfly lives in open woods in the southern half of the USA. The larval host plant is the false indigo bush, Amorpha fruticosa (a legume).
