A couple more shots of the Salome Yellow Butterfly I introduced June 13. It seems that June is the time when I see more butterflies than birds in my gardens 🙂 , so until my trip (July 1), that’s what I’m posting about mostly! 🙂
This butterfly in my garden is like many of the others, hard to identify, but the closest match in my book and online seems to be Salome Yellow (Eurema salome) (link to butterfliesandmoths.org). The book was more helpful for this butterfly than this online site though other sites verified the single spot on top. While the bottom side of the wings is very similar to both the Cloudless Sulphur and Tailed Sulphur, the heavier border and single dark dot on top seals it for this species, I think! 🙂
