April 2014 challenge

Post your best color photograph of insect on flower. Insects are also butterflies. Though the true dimensions of species diversity remain uncertain, estimates range from 1.4 to 1.8 million species. This probably represents less than 20% of all species on Earth, and with only about 20,000 new species of all organisms being described each year, most species likely will remain undescribed for many years unless species descriptions increase in rate. About 850,000–1,000,000 of all described species are insects. Of the 24 orders of insects, four dominate in terms of numbers of described species, with an estimated 600,000–795,000 species included in Coleoptera, Diptera, Hymenoptera and Lepidoptera. Please post imsects what you think is not common.
