Speaking of butterfly art (though not particularly folk), my husband and I found this gallery in San Juan, Puerto Rico. I attached two of my own pictures and a website link.

From Jeff Edmunds : These questions passed along from an arts librarian: Is anyone aware of a folk art tradition that involves the use of actualbutterfly wings in creating images? Would any French Nabokovians be aware of any popular works on butterflyhunting and collecting published in France ca. 1947-1957? I have turned upa few titles but am curious to know if there are any "standard" works fromthat period. Thanks very much. Jeff Edmunds
