Coordinator notes: May be you saw something on this individual to identify it as the Orange Sulphur? I don't see any orange on it at all and the underside is rather odd but not as marked as it should be on an Orange Sulphur so I have to declare it a Clouded Sulphur instead...the only species it could be otherwise!
