This delicate arthropod showcases its intricate brushfooted wings, adorned with captivating patterns that resemble marbled artwork. With its dainty presence and elegant flight, this four-footed nymphalid butterfly adds an ethereal touch to the surrounding flora. Its brown satyrid hue contrasts beautifully against the pure white coloration that gives it its name.
