But the ants dont want the bees. why don’t the ’skin’ of insects like butterflies, bees and dragonflies not ‘decay’?

sarah kutti, many of the japanese butterflies have appeared on stamps, so this must be one of them.

According to wikipedia, the Old English word for butterfly was buttor-fleoge apparently because butterflies were thought to steal milk. This is believed to have led to the evolution of its present name form – butterfly. Earlier, it was mistakenly considered that the word butterfly came from a metathesis of "flutterby".
