Similar in pattern on the underside to Delias
hypomelas rubrostriata, this species is immediately identifiable by
the large amount of white colouring on the underside hindwing, which
show up the orange/red stripes very clearly.
In 1995, a new species, Delias destrigata was
described by Henk van Mastrigt. This is now considered by many to be
simply a form of D. argentata. As far as I am aware, only two
specimens have yet been found, and as such, I have decided to show the
paratype photos on the subspecies page attached to this species, until
further specimens are found and it's true status confirmed.
