Butterfly wings come as a result of ordinary color, which is part of the light spectrum. Whatever colors are visible on a butterfly wing are the ones that get reflected back to the human eye. Wings are also colored structurally, which means the way that they develop, often in three tiny layers on the wing, influences the colors seen.

Butterflies get their wing color from tiny scales that cover their wings. These scales reflect and refract light to create the vibrant colors we see. The specific arrangement of scales, as well as pigments and structural properties, determine the butterfly's wing color.
