Anthocharis cardamines –<\/p>\n

Males differ from females by the orange-tip on the fore-wings, hence their vernacular name. Their host plant is the Cuckoo flower, but adult butterflies feed on other crucifer flowers. It is I think one of the prettiest pieridae!<\/p>\n

Le plus joli des pi\u00e9rid\u00e9s \u00e0 mon avis! Si les ailes ant\u00e9rieures se distinguent par la couleurs orang\u00e9e chez le m\u00e2le, en revanche le verso de l’aile post\u00e9rieure marbr\u00e9 est identiques chez les 2 sexes. Ses plantes h\u00f4tes, nourriture des chenilles, sont des plantes crucif\u00e8res comme Alliaria, Moutarde sauvage et Arabis mais la Cardamine reste la principale.
