Appearance:\nIt has a rusty orange colour to the wings, upper body and the tips of the antennae. The body is silvery white below and it has a wingspan of 25–30 mm. This butterfly is very similar in appearance to the Essex skipper (Thymelicus lineola). In the small skipper, the undersides of the tips of the antennae are yellow orange, whereas they are black in the Essex skipper. The black area on the lower edge of the upper wings also differs. Like the other orange grass skippers the male has a distinctive black stripe made up of scent scales.\n\nLife cycle and food plants:\nEggs are laid loosely inside grass sheaths of the caterpillars food plants from July to August. The newly hatched caterpillars eat their own eggshell before entering hibernation individually in a protective cocoon of a grass sheath sealed with silk. In the spring the caterpillar begins feeding. The favoured food plant is Yorkshire fog (Holcus lanatus), although other recorded food plants include timothy (Phleum pratense), creeping soft grass (Holcus mollis), false brome (Brachypodium sylvaticum), meadow foxtail (Alopecurus pratensis) and cock's foot (Dactylis glomerata). The caterpillars pupate near the base of the food plant in June with the first adults on the wing at the end of June, a week or two before the first Essex skippers. They are strongly attracted to purple flowers such as thistles and knapweeds.\n\nDistribution:\nThis butterfly's range includes much of Europe (east to the Urals, including Ireland, Britain and Scandinavia, and includes north Africa and the Middle East. It is typically occurring where grass has grown tall.\n\nThis Picture is made during a Long Weekend in the South of Belgium in June 2019.

Green-veined white is a very common resident in the Netherlands. The species prefers more natural habitats than the other Whites. It mainly occurs in relative humid habitats, such as woodland edges, woodland clearings and grasslands, but also found at he edge of heathland and in gardens and parks. Cardamine pratensis and Alliaria petiola are mostly used as larval foodplants.\nThe species flies in three generations and hibernates as a pupa. Due to prolonged emergence from the pupa, the different generations overlap and butterflies can be seen almost continuously from the end of April until the beginning of September.\nDistribution: Throughout Europe.
