Anthocharis scolymus, the yellow tip, is a butterfly in the subfamily Pierinae whose range is Eastern Asia (East China, Korea, Ussuri) where it is commonplace; occasionally it is found in Japan.
The apex of the forewing is produced and falcate (sickle-shaped); white above and below, with dark apical marking and black median spot on the forewing above, and a black spot at the apex of the hindwing; the male moreover, has a moderately large orange spot in the apical area of the forewing, occurring occasionally also in the female (= ab. virgo form. nov. The butterfly appears in one brood and is common in swampy places. The larva feeds on cress [1] (Draba, Descurainia sophia, Arabis hirsuta, Cardamine impatiens, and Rorippa).
