Cloudless Sulphur Butterfly

 

Phoebis sennae

 

Another species I have raised in my kitchen window since discovering them on a client's Cassia tree.

 

This butterfly had just emerged from its chrysalis on its left. The softest shade of butter yellow color; truly a delicate beauty.

 

The pattern shown in the photo of the underside of the wings does not carry through to the upper side of the wings, they are solid yellow.
