Pollinators

Originating in a particular place and not introduced by humans.

A butterfly is a flying insect with a small body and large, often colorful wings with extensive patterns. Butterflies undergo a transformation called metamorphosis, starting as an egg, then hatching into a caterpillar, forming a chrysalis, and finally emerging as a butterfly. Butterflies play important roles in ecosystems as pollinators, helping plants reproduce and as a food source for other animals, such as birds and bats.
