    This looks to be a "Clouded Yellow", which is a group of species, not just one in particular. In North America, they are called "clouded sulphurs". Based on appearance and occurence, my best guess is that this is a "Colias philodice", the most common clouded sulphur in the US. Posted 11 years ago
