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.

These gorgeous fake flowers are an oasis for tired city insects.
In 2017, a study found that in some parts of Germany, the entire flying insect population has declined by 75% over the last 27 years (a trend that has been demonstrated elsewhere). The shocking results moved the Dutch designer Matilde Boelhouwer–who put her skills as a designer to use to help feed insect pollinators in cities thorough a project called Food for Buzz. How? By creating artificial flowers of screen-printed fabric petals and 3D-printed plastic.
