Narrow-banded Dartwhite.

I have been trying to find more info about this species of butterfly but no luck. seems to be a some kind of Mexican butterfly.

Hola senor Luis, what a nice picture of this butterfly. I love the saturated colours, the perfect dof and sharpness. I like the way it is sharp against the blurred background, is gives a feeling of 3D. Superb shot, Luis, congratulations.

Hola Señor Luis!
Otra vez una muy buena toma una mariposa, casi perfecta!
Pero no es una especie de Papilionidae. Esta fantástica foto muestra una especie de Pieridae, Catasticta flisa, 'the Narrow-banded Dartwhite'
Felicidades amigo, es la primera vez en TN por esta especie!
Un abrazo fraternal,
Ivan

Hello Luis,
Although I'm concerned with European species of butterflies but sometime like to look at exotic species. Yours have interesting shape of wings, colours and pattern. All the details are sharp, smooth BG, all is composed very well.

Hola Luis,
a fine picture of this Catasticta species. Sharpness is excellent
and the specimen stands out very clear, in addition.
'Argus' is right with his identification. Battus polydamas looks quite different.
Best wishes, Peter
