Pieris angelika

Cracker creek area

C. Guppy wrote this about a white i posted on inaturalist:Although the photos are very distant and not sharp, the second photo shows the upper forewing wing pattern characteristic of a female P. marginalis. Southern Yukon has 3 species of Pieris - P. angelika, P. marginalis, and P. oleraciea. P. oleracea would have almost no wing pattern, so that eliminates that species. P. angelika females have quite extensive black upper forewing pattern (unlike the photo), and P. marginalis females have grey upper forewing pattern (range from relatively little pattern (as in this case) to extensive grey pattern.

Pontia sisymbrii

in the yard, May 8, 2016

Our yard is open, dry and sunny, southern exposure. Don was spilling some water, creating mud. That attracted this white, a mourning cloak and a what looked like a comma. Also in the woods a blue fluttering around.

Many Whites, i started seeing them at elevation 3000 feet, up to possibly 6000 feet (i didn't go higher)
I did see black spots on the wing tips of this one.
