Solution(By Examveda Team)
Butterflies have a Spongy type mouth part.This section deals only with insects that feed by sucking fluids, as a rule without piercing their food first, and without sponging or licking.
A few adult Lepidoptera lack mandibles, but also have the remaining mouthparts in the form of an elongated sucking tube, the proboscis.
