Main Page | See live article | Alphabetical index Green-veined White Scientific classification Kingdom: Animalia Phylum: Arthropoda Class: Insecta Order: Lepidoptera Superfamily: Papilionoidea Family: Pieridae Genus: Artogeia Species: napi The Green-veined White ( Artogeia napi) is a well-known European butterfly, found in open country and woodland. Like other "white" butterflies, the sexes differ. The female has two spots on each forewing, the male only one. Although its caterpillars feeds on brassicas, it normally selects wild species, and is therefore not the pest that some other white butterflies have become. It can produce up to three broods in a year. This article is from Wikipedia. All text is available under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License.
