It is necessary to transfer the photos to rapae, there has long agreed with Eugene)

It was possible, Eugene - thank you very much! I, frankly, too embarrassing lack of rounded vertex spot, but before you put the photos, reviewed available) and just this one picture http://lepidoptera.ru/gallery/20707 (there still was not your commentary about rapae) dispelled my doubts) I decided that zakruglёnnost- diagnostich not mandatory. sign)

Irina, here are my thoughts: 1) in brassicae dark spot at the top of the front wing is clearly semicircular on the inside. See, for example, http://lepidoptera.ru/gallery/3784; 2) of the same color svrehu pretty rich black spots; Here we see (the edge of the wing sticking) gray; 3) a little different form the wings and, in general, the overall impression.:) Often somehow immediately clear that in view, and not so easy to formulate - and for some, in fact, featured? :) In this case, it seems to be possible.

My output is so quiet ...), like nespets-a) It would be grateful to Evgeny for the considerations expressed here in this photo. On what grounds he confidently identified. I have it for many years considered the cabbage), signed a photo for a long time, right after the shooting.Considerations - Butterfly rather large (even in comparison with non-small flower red clover can be seen), and dark picture elements were sufficiently developed, and contrast, as the shine off the corner. Eugene, correct, please, what is wrong?
