Brassica Butterfly
The Brassica Butterfly, also known as the cabbage white butterfly, is a common species found in gardens and agricultural areas. Its wings are typically white with black spots, and it has a wingspan of about 1 to 2 inches. This butterfly primarily feeds on plants from the Brassica family, which includes cabbage, broccoli, and kale.
The Brassica Butterfly undergoes a complete metamorphosis, starting as an egg, then transforming into a caterpillar, followed by a pupa, and finally emerging as an adult butterfly. These butterflies are important pollinators, but their caterpillars can also be pests, causing damage to crops and ornamental plants.
