Abstract
Butterflies are elegant, beautiful, and charming insects due to their colourful squamate. They are a great source of economic and beautification and indicators for biodiversity of agroecsystem. In addition to this, they are more important pollinators of flora than the flies and moths. An investigation of several locations in Taluka Larkana with the goal of collecting as many specimens of butterflies was carried out from March to July 2022. About 288 samples of butterflies were captured from different sites. The collected specimens were sorted out into 03 families: Pieridae, Papilionidae and Nymphalidae with 06 genera and 06 species: Danaus chrysippus (Linnaeus,1758), Vanessa cardui (Linnaeus,1758), Junonia almana (Linnaeus,1758), Papilio demoleus Linnaeus,1758, Eurema hecabe (Linnaeus,1758) and Pieris canidia (Sparrman, 1768). Description of the collected species, detailed genitalia, digital images and habitat of species are provided first time from the studied area. Hopefully, this study will be fruitful for the future researchersconcerned with this group
