Today in the UK I had good views of a female Large White, with the areas that are usually white or creamy white being pale yellow. I thought it was a Brimstone at first. Is this a common variant? I've never noticed one like this before.

i dont know the name but there have been a couple here. the yellow is very, very pale and has an almost green tinge when close up. most would call them white but i did notice the hue myself.
