Common Dotted Border (Mylothris agathina)

Family Pieridae

 I found this pupa and put it in a bottle to see what would develop and it turned into a beautiful butterfly.

 They are large with a wingspan of 58-75mm.

 The outer margins of their wings, both upper and lower, have an unmistakable margin of black dots along the border.

 Found along the eastern and coastal areas.
