This article is about the evolutionary sequence. For the oscillator occasionally also referred to as this, see By flops.

Butterfly is a common evolutionary sequence evolving into the formation of two beehives seen below after 33 generations. Compare this with teardrop, where the beehives are five cells closer together.

In other rules

In HighLife, the butterfly is part of the replicator sequence.
