Aberrant Marbled White with yellow underside
Spotted this possible Aberrant Marbled With flitting around a local Devon meadow. Its upper wings were normal except for a noticeable thin yellow band to the upper forewings, buts its underside hind wings were patterned in yellow rather than Black and white. Any comments welcome.
Re: Aberrant Marbled White with yellow underside
The yellow forewing band and undersides indicate this is a female. It's looks like a normal female in your pictures

Many thanks indeed with your help on that and clarification of gender appearance. She was very yellow which foxed me,
Dave.

A mating pair can show the difference between the sexes.
