Coordinator notes: I first labeled this as "Large Orange Sulphur" and still think it is close to that, but I am still a novice at butterfly identification and someone marked it "Misidentified" saying "rounded wing tips breaks in diagonal line looks more like cloudless female apricot sulphur" which I will accept and I am relabeling it as a female Apricot Sulphur.
