| General Notes | The status of the Clouded Sulphur in our area is uncertain. At best, it is uncommon -- if it's found here at all -- and can easily be confused with the Orange Sulphur (Colias eurytheme), particularly the spring forms that sometimes have no orange on them. Overwinters: Third instar larva. |
