   Val George sends an interesting photograph from Island View Beach, June 1, of an Anise Swallowtail in which the backround colour is white rather than the usual yellow.  Although the butterfly is slightly worn, the white colour does not appear to be the result of wear, but is rather the intrinsic colour.
