Frutterfly[1] is a period-4 oscillator, and is among the smallest true-period-4 oscillators not based on mold.
It can nontrivially interact with one or two appropriate still lifes, such as a tub, beehive, loaf or mango.
Occurrences in Catagolue
Frutterfly has occurred in asymmetric soups in B37e/S23-q, but not in Life. However, it has occurred semi-naturally once in the C2_2 census, which is no more conducive to reflectionally-symmetrical occurrences than C1.[2]
