- For the Butterfly-10k, we carefully sampled 10K images from the Heliconius Collection dataset to ensure the images capture unique specimens and represent a diverse set of species. We adopt the following steps:

129
- - We filter out images with more than one image from the same view (i.e., dorsal or ventral).
130
- - We ensure each species has a minimum of 20 images and no more than 2,000 images.
