Field notes and information
Two seemingly identical species have been separated on the basis of biochemical and DNA data. To all intents and purposes they are indistinguishable without the access to a modern high tech research laboratory. Please see notes on the bath white, P. daplidice, for more details of this species complex.
Fortunately for those of us who don't have several hundred thousand euros worth of research equipment at home, the ranges of these two species overlap only in a narrow band line running north-south from northwest Italy. Based solely on distribution, I have to named the butterflies in these photos. The current species flies in the east and the bath white P. daplidice in the west.
