It is the presence of the pigment melanin that is responsible for yellow coloring in butterflies (Lepidopteraorder).
Specifically, the activation of melanin results in brown or yellow coloring in butterflies. Other colors are due to the predominant presence of other pigments. For example, anthocyanin is responsible for blue, purple or red. As is the case with plants, chlorophyll is responsible for green-colored butterflies.
