'''Butterflies''' are insects that appear in many games of the [[Super Mario (franchise)|''Super Mario'' franchise]]. They usually do so in groups, often simply as a background element, such as in ''[[Donkey Kong Country]]'' and ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]''. [[Flutter]]s and other species from the ''Super Mario'' franchise are based on butterflies.

In ''[[Super Mario 64]]'' and ''[[Super Mario 64 DS]]'', there are a few stages (as well as outside the [[Peach's Castle|Mushroom Castle]]) where butterflies fly around. They appear in groups of three and have two variations: In the first variation, one butterfly turns into a [[1-Up Mushroom|1-UP Mushroom]] upon being hit by [[Mario]], and the other two do not transform into anything. In the second variation, one butterfly turns into a 1-UP Mushroom, and the other two transform into bombs similar to a [[flame thrower (Flame Chomp)|flame thrower]] or [[Metal ball|iron ball]] and chase Mario until they hit him or something else. In either situation, the butterflies explode.<ref>MrRobertZ (August 21, 2006). [https://youtu.be/jBHOsaD1ivM Super Mario 64 - Convert All Butterflies]. ''YouTube''.

The [[Lost Kingdom]] in ''[[Super Mario Odyssey]]'' is home to a large number of multicolored butterflies; they are mostly found in colonies and scatter slightly when Mario invades them. Apart from the ornamental butterflies, there is also a considerably larger, glowing butterfly that holds a [[Power Moon]]. It is always found east from [[Rocky Mountain Summit]], resting on the edge of a narrow cliff jut. It flies away if Mario comes close to it, returning to the same spot after Mario leaves; however, it does not react to being approached by [[Cappy]]. There are also butterflies that resemble large whites and swallowtails in the [[Wooded Kingdom]] and [[Mushroom Kingdom (Super Mario Odyssey)|Mushroom Kingdom]], respectively.
