As an example of what?15 of the 41 states with a "state insect" have Apis mellifera as their state insect (not counting Tennessee which has it as the state agricultural insect, with the 7-spotted ladybug as the state insect period). It's by far the most popular choice; the second most common one is the Monarch butterfly (5 states; another 2 have it as the state butterfly but not the state insect, and Kentucky has the Viceroy butterfly, which looks almost identical to the Monarch but is a different species, as its state insect).
