Elathea Yellow (Eurema elathea)

A small sandbank not far from the pier of Fazenda San Fransico was crowded with a great number of butterflies, and I was fortunate to disembark and get some shots, but not long enough as I was “disturbed” by the appearance of giant otters on the other side of the river.

Here’s one in flight.

Also called straight-barred grass yellow.

Thanks to Kim Garwood for identification.
