Description
The butterfly has white forewings with black borders above, and deep orange-yellow hindwings. The underside is also orange-yellow with spots and markings.
Habitat & Habits
The Orange Emigrant is often encountered in the company of its close cousin, the Lemon Emigrant (Catopsilia pomona pomona). Both species are urban butterflies in Singapore and are found in gardens and parks. Having a strong and erratic flight, the butterfly is not easy to capture, except when it is feeding.
