Lepidopterran

The Lepidopterrans are an extraterrestrial species of insectoids from the swamp planet Lepidopterra (a play on "lepidoptera", the scientific name for butterflies and moths).

Appearance and Biology
The Lepidopterrans are an insectoid species with four insect-like legs and two arms with three clawed fingers. They have four pedunculated eyes that are quite small, but grow larger with age. Their wings are very fragile with lines on them. Infant Lepidopterrans have large eyes with pupils and have much smaller wings.

The Lepidopterrans in the reboot continuity are drastically different from their original counterparts. These Lepidopterrans have slender humanoid bodies that are cyan in color, with their shoulders, armpits, and ankles being light blue. They have cyan compound eyes and several light blue stripes on their bodies. They also have two orange wings and two dark cyan antennae. Female Lepidopterrans have spikes on their arms and were thinner than male Lepidopterrans.

Powers/Abilities
The Lepidopterrans are extremely acrobatic flyers, able to pull off amazing maneuvers of precision and grace. They are extremely agile, able to avoid most attacks while attacking the opponents, and are stronger than humans.

The Lepidopterrans have a large variety of attacks like goo spitting, blowing nauseous gas and stinging their opponents.

Infant Lepidopterrans are able to emit a powerful herbicide via flatulence.

While designed mainly for grappling, the hard spikes on their forearms also make a valuable weapon in battle.

Weaknesses
Although their exoskeleton body is fairly strong, Lepidopterran wings are very fragile.

Water is especially a problem for The Lepidopterrans, as it can render them incapable of flight if too much gets on their wings. They are unable to swim well due to the small surface area of their legs.

Lepidopterran goo can be neutralized by a Buglizard's fog. Like most earth insects, Lepidopterrans are extremely vulnerable to any kind of chemical poison or gas.

Culture
Residing in a complex of giant hives, each ruled by its own queen, Lepidopterrans are the predominant species on Lepidopterra. Life on Lepidopterra is seasonal, and every species plays a part in keeping the ecosystem healthy, making sure the flora continues to produce its fruit so that all can live together in harmony as they have for countless eons.

Omnitrix Transformation
The Omnitrix's Lepidopterran representative is named Stinkfly, who first appeared in the original series episode Washington BC. Stinkfly has appeared in almost every series except Alien Force. He was voiced by Dee Bradley Baker in the original series and ''Omniverse. ''He is voiced by Greg Cipes in the reboot series.

The Ben Tennyson of Dimension 23 has an equivalent of Stinkfly named Big Bug, who first appeared in the Omniverse episode "And Then There Was Ben".

The reboot version of Kevin 11 has a mutant hybrid equivalent of Stinkfly named Skunkmoth, who first appeared in the episode Introducing Kevin 11. He is the least alien that Kevin had used. He is voiced by Greg Cipes.

Stinkfly has also been used by the Prime Timeline Kevin, Ben 10,000, and the reboot version of Gwen.
