The red admiral (Vanessa atalanta) is a well-known colourful butterfly, found in temperate Europe, Asia and North America. Atalanta is a figure in Greek mythology, a strong yet feminine woman who faces obstacles and backlash for refusing to follow gender norms.

The painted lady (Vanessa cardui) is a well-known colourful butterfly, known as the cosmopolitan in North America. This butterfly has a strange pattern of flying in a sort of screw shape. Vanessa cardui is one of the most widespread of all butterflies, found on every continent except Antarctica and South America.
