Skipper Butterfly

            The Skippers are a family of butterflies, the Hesperiidae. They are named after their quick, darting flight. They are a bit different from other butterflies, which are classified in the superfamily Papilionoidea. Skippers have their antennae clubs hooked backward like a crochet. The other butterflies have club-like tips to their antennae. Skippers also have generally stockier bodies than the other two groups, with stronger wing muscles. Hesperioidea is very likely the sister group of Papilionoidea. -Wiki
