Sulphur of some sort?

10 years ago

Hi Everyone, would really appreciate some help IDing this little guy. I've looked at all my books, and went on line, and as far as I can tell, this is a Sulphur of some sort, or a cabbage white. I have two of them, on my New England Asters. Thanks in advance for the help!

It doesn't look like any sulphur I'm familiar with, but it does look like 'the asteroid' which is a moth that eats various asters when a caterpillar.

Thanks, Sherry. I just googled this and that's exactly what it is. I've seen the moth out there too.
