Cloudless Sulphur
Phoebis sennae
The adult butterfly frequents warm open habitats, including meadows, gardens, agricultural edges, and roadsides. It drinks nectar from many flowers while males patrol quickly in search of mates and females seek suitable senna or cassia plants for eggs. Its bright yellow wings and strong, wandering flight make it one of the more noticeable sulphur butterflies. A notable fact is that adults often move long distances seasonally in response to weather and food availability.
