Hi,

This one kept evading me, until I came upon him from the front….:)

The Pieridae are a large family of butterflies;quite commonly seen around.We have a pretty good number f them in our campus.

There are about 700 species of Pieridae, mostly in tropical Africa and Asia.They are characterised by mainly white or yellow coloration, often with black spots. The sexes usually differ, often in the pattern or number of the black markings.

Butterflies from this family are predominantly White or Yellow in colour along with black markings.Their flight is rapid and they move erratically from plant to plant.There are 81 Species from this family found in India.

The Pieridae have the radial vein on the forewing with 3 or 4 branches and rarely with 5 branches. The fore legs are well developed unlike in the Nymphalidae and the tarsal claws are bifid unlike in the Papilionidae. Like the Papilionidae, these too have their pupae held at an angle by a silk girdle, but running at the first abdominal segment unlike the thoracic girdle seen in the Papilionidae.

Thanks for stopping by!!!
