What is the Insect Longest Migration?
The longest migration for an insect goes to the Desert Locust (Schistocerca gregaria) who travels about 2800 miles yearly. Monarch butterflies (Danaus plexippus) migrate over 2000 miles as they fly from Canada to central Mexico every fall. Monarch butterflies (Danaus plexippus) can fly over 1000 km without stopping. Monarchs are very popular as collector items and are now available framed or as electronic moving butterflies. They are also perfect for butterfly releases!
