I haven't found a perfect butterfly guide yet, so far the best however I used is the Audubon Field Guide for North American Butterflies.<BR/>Leedra's link is spot on - I use that site quite often, though more for bugs and dragons...<BR/>Cheers, Klauskjpwebhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08943083978093494506noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6001026973715727252.post-84353129296648537612008-09-16T19:48:00.000-04:002008-09-16T19:48:00.000-04:00Of course, its the bane of Cabbage Patch kids ever...Of course, its the bane of Cabbage Patch kids everywhere - a Cabbage White.

I might say differently if I had my book. I will check when I get home.<BR/><BR/>Check out http://www.butterfliesandmoths.org/<BR/>check the Image Gallery, and look at white and sulphurs. It is a great source. I use it on top of my books, because the photographs are easier on the eyes than the reference books.Leedrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04914177127665868671noreply@blogger.com
