Description from Seitz

Шаблон:Lepidopteran glossary hatnote Gonepteryx farinosa from West Asia (the occurrence in North Africa is very doubtful), is conspicuously larger than specimens of G. rhamni from Central Europe or even South France; the scaling of the male is thick, chalky, being lighter above and below on the distal portion of the wings, the whole hindwing, moreover, being somewhat lighter in tint than the forewing; the yellow central spots are more indistinct, being often absent from the forewing, especially in females; the latter still paler than G. rhamni females. The specific distinctness of G. farinosa has often been doubted, as G. farinosa occurs together with G. rhamni and G. cleopatra (for instance in southern Asia Minor).[1]

Biology

The larva feeds on Rhamnus, Ziziphus , Paliurus
