Neophasia Menapia, Pine White


Day 332: The weather here is unpleasantly hot and has been for more than a week now. Although cool nights temper the mornings, by noon, you'll break a sweat if you exert yourself in the slightest. The heat of the day has not been entirely without reward, however. It brings out the few butterflies which have not already pupated.

One might mistake any of the Whites for another on casual glance, but of the four varieties one might find in my region, the Pine White is the only one with distinctive black wing margins.
