Colias philodice Godart, 1819.
Lepidoptera includes butterflies and moths and are characterized by scaly wings and a proboscis that functions as a sucking mouthpart. Those in this order live above ground in terrestrial ecosystems because they utilize their wings to find nectar in flowers. This organism has been identified to species from the sulfur color from the wings, brown trim around the edges of this butterfly, and dark circles on the fore and hind wing of the specimen. This organism was collected in leaf litter and around plants.
