| | | Which White?
Hello all - continuing my series of confusing white butterflies, can anyone help me with this rather tattered specimen, photographed just outside Wolverhampton yesterday? Could it be a Green-Veined White male? Help!!   |

I agree it's a Green-veined White. I'm still learning the differences though. I think it's a female.

There are more black markings. The male is a lot "cleaner" looking. I think.
