brimstones
Pale yellow lepidopterans
Brimstones is the plural of brimstone, an archaic name for sulfur—the yellow element that burns with a choking smell.
The word survives mainly in the phrase fire and brimstone, describing hellfire or sermons threatening damnation: The preacher delivered a fire-and-brimstone sermon.
A brimstone is also a yellow butterfly found in Europe.
