Peacock butterfly

''I caught a peacock butterfly! How dark and pretty!- Animal Crossing: City Folk''

The peacock butterfly is an uncommon insect, if only for its attraction to hybridised plants. It only hovers in areas near to purple, black or blue flowers.

Upon Donation in City Folk
Blathers, the curator of the museum, will accept peacock butterflies for donation to the insect wing;

"I trust you've seen a bunch of butterflies fluttering about a puddle before, have you not...? Hoo, yes, there would be peacock butterflies, then. They don't just sip nectar... The beasts drink water, too. And in great, wretched groups, no less! Utterly repugnant!"
