I have not seen a large or small white this year yet and they usually first call in my garden.
I will try to remember the differences so when they do come I will recognise them.

From my experience with whites, size is not always the key. The amount of black on the inner wing is more helpful in my opinion. I think this is fully explained in that link I pasted.
