What is a "sulfur butterfly"?

A sulfur butterfly is a vibrant insect belonging to the family Pieridae. It is named for its predominantly yellow wings, which can range from pale lemon to bright sulfur yellow. Sulfur butterflies are commonly found in open fields, meadows, and gardens, where they flutter gracefully among flowers in search of nectar. They play an essential role in pollination as they feed on the nectar of various flowering plants.

Their radiant coloration and delicate flight patterns make them a delightful sight and a cherished symbol of beauty in the natural world.
