Butterflies that are generally referred to are the day-active Lepidoptera (moths) of the superfamily Papilionoidea and the Hesperioidea(skippers). In addition, every species of butterfly has a latin name, but these are individually assigned per species.

Lepidoptera translates to 'scaled wings', so if you choose you could call them 'scaled winged insects', 'dayactive moths' (though this name is generally reserved for moths that are active during the day while they are not classified as butterflies).
