Southern Small White??

Post by Stevie Blunder »

I took this photo on Hayling Island a couple of days ago. Google lens tells me it’s a Southern Small White. That can’t be right can it?? Maybe the damaged wing makes google think they are wing markings?

Best not to rely on non-human applications.

That looks to me like a 100% Small White female.

I beg to differ David. The photographer said that it had a damaged wing so it cannot possibly be 100%.
