Dina Yellow

Dina Yellow, Pyrisitia dina (my gallery link) is one of many yellows, sulphurs and whites found all over Costa Rica as you can see in my Pieridae Gallery with 32 species I’ve photographed! The female of the Dina is easier to identify because she has the brown trim as seen in the feature photo or the second photo below. The male is mostly plain yellow with a few dots making the male a lot like many other yellows and so the identification challenge continues! 🙂 Two photos below . . .

¡Pura Vida!
