Lemon Migrant
Catopsilia pomona, the common emigrant or lemon emigrant, is a medium-sized pierid butterfly found in Asia and parts of Australia. The species gets its name from its habit of migration. Some early authors considered them as two distinct species Catopsilia crocale and Catopsilia pomona.
Common Grass Yellow
Eurema hecabe, a.k.a. the large grass yellow or common grass yellow, is a small pierid butterfly species found in Asia and Africa.
