Description

Catopsilia Pomona Pomona is large spécie living in South East Asia, Indonésia , all Island , Malaisia , Philippines, Irian Jaya , Papua New Guinéa, Salomons Islands, Australia, Vanuatu and New Calédonia ; Discover by Fabricius in 1775 Member of Piéridaé/Coliadinaé family Common Name : Lémon Migrant , Common Emigrant ,Lémon Emigrant, This spécie have got any different form , as male and female Early entomologists considered Catopsilia pomona and Catopsilia crocale to be separate species, but it is now scientifically proven that both are forms of the same subspecies - C. pomona pomona. There are in fact at least 6 different colour forms or 'morphs'.

The various 'pomona' forms all have a pair of silvery spots on the underside, in the cell of the hind wing, and often have dark patches, these being most pronounced in f. catilla. On the upper surface the wings are whitish with a deep yellow flush in the basal area ( f. hilaria ), or plain creamy white in other pomona forms. The 'crocale' forms have wings that are unmarked on the underside. The uppersides of both forms have thin black apical borders in males, while females have a broad dark apical area within which are several pale squarish spots. The 'crocale' and 'catilla' forms are both widespread. The various colour forms are seasonal - caused by variations in day-length during the larval stage, but it is quite possible to see 'catilla' and 'crocale' side by side at certain times of year.
