[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note |
The checkered white (Pontia protodice), butterfly in the family Pieridae. The wingspan is 1.25-1.75 in. Habitats are open areas, including desert, plains, and disturbed areas. Though it may seem these species of butterfly inhabit a wide range of environments, they have been found to be absent from certain counties for many years at a time. Checkered whites have been seen nectaring on mustards, composites, and alfalfa. |
