They enchant me all :)) it´s my first time that i spoted Delias...wonderful ones yes.
DanielePralong
I would agree; I had slights doubts after seeing patrua and decided do play it safe. Delias is a wonderful genus and it never ceases to enchant me :-)

Thanks a lot Daniele! I think it D. lativitta as the white patches on the forwings are larger than those of D.patrua.
DanielePralong
Hi Florian! D. lativitta or D. patrua could be matches. They're both found in the north of Thailand, but described as rare. Please verify or see whether anyone else can confirm :-)
