Hi, Mary Beth!
In regard to your question about "Cracker" butterflies: the Genus
"Hamadryus," examplified by the Costa Rican species Hamadrys amphenone,
can indeed make a clicking sound with its wings. What the exact purpose
of this mechanism is, I can't say for sure...I had a difficult enough
time locating a reference to it on the internet.
Hope this helps!
