Well Bayucca, if you are confused, think about ME!!!!! All I see are zillions of butterflies flying around, each one in a different color. Just thinking that a simple and common white butterfly can be one of a dozen different species is enough to give me a headache. But I suppose that that makes the day of the experts, so I'll keep posting them here. And I still WILL get that Giant Blue Morpho that comes by every now and them!!!

I almost got it when I noticed that there is obviously a Thermesina AND Thermesia one. So, I am a little bit confused about the name and species: http://www.learnaboutbutterflies.com/Andes%20-%20Dismorphia%20thermesia.htm http://www.neotropicalbutterflies.com/Site%20Revision/Pages/PieridPages/Dismorphia_thermesina.html

Pieridae (!), Dismorphia sp. I am pretty but not 100% sure it is a Dismorphia sp., but it is not Crisia.
