Extract

Catopsilia neleis, var. floridensis ♂ ♀.

A beautiful variety of C. neleis, Boisd. It differs from its tropical types considerably.

The ♂ ♂ have a bright sulphur-yellow in basal half of primaries, the broad anterior space beingof a creamy white instead of the citron colour in the typical form.

The same is the case with the secondaries, except that three-quarters of the area of wings are of bright sulphur.

♀ ♀ are not yellow, but creamy-white with large black discal spots, black rimmed apices and anterior margins of primaries, and with prominent citron tinge of the basal area of secondaries.
