Thanks, Jim.

I probably won't remember, though. I love flutterbys, but so far tend to not 
remember many of their names. Perhaps 
because English has their obvious generic name wrong. ;-)

The Spanish name 'Mariposa' seems to me more appropriate, if we can't just call 
them what they so obviously are, 
"Flutterby".
