Few Words About Buterflies

Butterflies play mainly three roles in the ecosystem. They lay a large number of eggs, so a
large number of caterpillars or larvae hatch out. These voraciously eat leaves throughout the
day and night causing considerable damages to green plants. These larvae are pulpy and are
picked by birds to feed their nestlings. After larval stage they become pupae and then these
transform to beautiful butterflies. These then suck juice from various flowers, thus they help
in cross-pollination. Margalla Hills National Park has large variety of butterflies. The common
