Eurema salome (Sulphur sp.)

Description:

Species within the genus Eurema (Grass Yellows) range from Asia, Africa, Australia, and Oceania, to the Americas.
The Grass Yellows are generally weak flyers, fluttering low around bushes and flowers.
At least 71 species are currently known. 
They are generally difficult to tell apart and what makes it even more difficult is that the sexes often differ slightly and there are different seasonal forms (wet and dry season forms).
The main differences between the species are:
a) the number of black spots on the underside of the forewing, combined with
b) the shape of the (apical) black markings on the upperside of the forewing and
c) the shape of the apical area markings on the underside of the forewing. 

This is the subspecies Eurema salome jamapa which occurs in Mexico and south to Panama, and, sometimes, in Texas.

Andrew Neild, author of The Butterflies of Venezuela and a recognized authority on Neotropical butterflies, helped me identifying this species.
