Moths are just as valid as butterflies!

As a moth aficionado, I'd say they're much more interesting. They evolved 90 million years before butterflies. There are also 9 times as many moth species as butterfly species. They're also more efficient at pollination than not only butterflies but bees. Go moths!

They aren't related? Like it's convergent evolution shit? Or are they like moth and butterflies
-
Butterflies are considered to have evolved from moths.
-
In French they are all butterflies (papillons). There once was a distinction between butterflies and night butterflies (moths) but apparently it's now obsolete and they are just all lepidoptera.
-
That seems crazy. All butterflies come from moths, so it'd make more sense for Papillon to mean moth. It's like calling everything from the order Rodentia a Capybara, or everything in Eulipotyphla a hedgehog, both things within those orders in smaller numbers.
-
Weirdly enough, language largelt evolves independently from other species.

Do the micro moths include the ones in cupboards and closets?

I hate those fuckers. They infested the family house and we can't seem to get rid of them.

You have to check everything. We found them nesting in the fucking wallpaper.

Makes sense to me, they're so furry they must carry pollen everywhere
