From the Paper:

"The Monarch Butterfly (Danaus plexippus)
The monarch butterfly, Danaus plexippus, is a widespread insect species. In North America, it is a most characteristic large, ornate butterfly. There has even been an effort in the United States to adopt the monarch as the national insect. Moreover, D. plexippus is the only insect listed by the Bonn Convention for the Conservation of Migratory Species of Wild Animals. In fact, the extraordinary attention that the butterfly has received over the years has led some authors to doubt whether it is justified. The monarch butterfly certainly is not endangered; actually, relatively large numbers of the organism exist. Perhaps it is the monarch's combination of intriguing characteristics though, which have made it the focus of so much scientific investigation."
