Orange Sulphur (first of the year)

Another no-brainer post, since this turned out so well. A “sulphur” in the Pieridae family (Coliadinae subfamily), the Orange Sulphur (Colias eurytheme) apparently was not identified as a new species until 1852.

Confirmed at BAMONA as Colias eurytheme or “Orange Sulphur”; http://www.butterfliesandmoths.org/sighting_details/911282

Two years ago (“In the shade of an old, oak tree”): http://365project.org/rhoing/365/2011-07-20
Forty-four years ago: “One small step for [a] man…”
