Field Notes

Description:

White butterfly with black design along the margin of the wings.

Habitat:

It was on a Lantana plant but was also flitting to Indian hliotrope growing nearby.

Notes:

The reference I have added (http://www.ifoundbutterflies.org/65-appias/appias-olferna) shows at least three DIFFERENTly coloured butterflies under the same name...but very definitely, this one is also represented.
Plus DanielePralong suggested the name...MANY THANKS.
