A diversity study was conducted in three different sites of Indore that are Butterfly garden of Govt. Holkar Science College, Sirpur Lake (Ramsar Site) and Ralamandal Wildlife Sanctuary. These three sites represent three different habitats. The first one is a manmade ecosystem, the second one is a wetland habitat and the last one is a forest area. A comparative study was done for the period of January 2017 to December 2022 in these selected areas. The occurrence and diversity of butterflies in a habitat is determined by the presence of nectar and larval host plants. On the basis of different vegetation and other abiotic conditions, butterfly diversity prevails in these three different habitats. A total of 68 species of butterflies were identified in Holkar Science College, 58 from Sirpur Lake and 39 from Ralamandal Wildlife Sanctuary.
