HumBug: Lepidoptera.

Butterflies and moths make up the order lepidoptera. Although butterflies get a lot more attention, many experts find moths more interesting. Typically butterflies fly in day and moths by night. While butterfly antennae are thin and end in a knob, moth's antennae have other shapes from thin filaments to elaborate fronds. In North America it is estimated there are about 700 species of butterfly while moths may number more than 11,000. Some experts consider butterflies merely a family of day-flying moths.
