		Two main orders of insects are involved: the Danainae of North America and the Ithomiinae of South America.
		Both larvae and adults of the Danainae may consume food plants with pyrrolizidine alkaloids, but only adult Ithomiinae are able to obtain the alkaloids.
		In addition to the use of pyrrolizidine alkaloids as protective chemicals, species of three groups of Lepidoptera (Danainae, Ithomiinae, and Arctiidae) biosynthise pheromones from the alkaloids that they acquire from plants, often during larval feedling.

	Brush-footed butterfly - Encyclopedia, History, Geography and Biography
		Several species are attracted to Buddleia, a butterfly host plant.
		There are four major clades within Nymphalidae, the danaine clade (subfamily Danainae), the satyrine clade (which includes the subfamilies Charaxinae, Satyrinae, Calinaginae and Morphinae), the heliconiine clade (including Heliconiinae and Limenitidinae excluding Biblidini, Cyrestini, Pseudergolini, and Coeini) and the nymphaline clade (including Nymphalinae, Apaturinae, and Coeini, Cyrestini, Pseudergolini, and Biblidini from the Limenitidinae).
		The danaine clade is the most basal group and the heliconiine and nymphaline are sister groups.

		Most members of this family occur in Asia; only four species occur in North America, one of which is the well-known Monarch.
		Two species occur in Idaho, and both belong to the Subfamily Danainae.
		In additon to the traits described above, this family is also characterized by: 1) large size, with a wingspan typically of three inches or more; 2) orange, brown, or fl coloration in North American species; and 3) a hair pencil
