I did my best to identify the butterflies, but because they're from all over the world (Instead of just North America) I don't have a book for it so I had to make do with google searches and the limited working links on the Reiman Gardens website.

| Snail - apparently the butterfly house is home to a few hitchhikers that have smuggled themselves inside in potted plants. The girl who answered questions for us while we were in the butterfly house said it was home to anywhere from 500 to 700 butterflies, a few tiny singing tree frogs, several snails, an exotic species of millipede with pink feet and a colony of tiny ants that have made their home behind the utility closet. |
