probably Mountain White (AKA Common Greeneyed-White) (Leptophobia aripa)
Salento area, Quindio, Colombia
21 June 2017
Below are photos of butterflies I shot while Laura and I trekked around Colombia for three weeks June-July 2017. Identifications are based upon my perusal of resources including Butterflies of America website, A Swift Guide to the Butterflies of Mexico and Central America, and various other books and websites. Special thanks to Kim Garwood and James Adams for taxonomic and identification discussions! Please email me at jeffpippen9@gmail.com with any additional identification thoughts. Depending upon the day, photos were shot with a Canon eos 60d, Canon PowerShot sx60, or an iPhone 6. Enjoy!
Photos are arranged roughly in phylogenetic order following the Butterflies of America site as of July 2017. I saw no swallowtails the entire trip.
