Butterflies are beautiful animals that are one type of insect and belong to the order Lepidoptera. Butterflies include animals undergoing metamorphosis. The life cycle of a butterfly starts from an egg and eventually becomes a butterfly. Based on the activity time, butterflies belong to diurnal animals (active during the day). In sunny weather, around 8:00 to 10:00, they will visit the blooming flowers to suck honey. By noon, they rest in shady places, and resume its effectiveness back around 15:00 - 17:00. The shape and color of the beautiful wings play an important role for their reproductive activities. This color is useful to attract couples to get to know each other before marriage. Female butterfly can be married 2 - 3 hours after hatching from cocoon, while the male takes 2 - 3 days then he married. During the mating process, the male and female pair up in a few hours. After mating, 2 - 3 days later the female lays eggs. But in Jakarta butterflies are rarely to be discovered let alone bright butterflies due to the diminishing place becomes difficult for butterflies to find a place to live.
