Pieris napi.
Picture taken July 11.
I’m afraid it isn’t a Large White but Green-veined!
Thanks to evereyone who pointed out it was a Green-veined White. I nearly marked it provisional ID but then thought I’d got it right. If someone could tell me what it is they saw in the photo that told you I had it wrong, I’d appreciate it.
The Small White and Large White have plain white wings on the underside, this one has its veins marked out in a greenish grey colour.
Thank you very much!
It’s a Green-veined White!
???? Green Veined White ….nice photo
