Gonepteryx rhamni
Common brimstone is yellowish butterfly, of some 5 - 5,5 cm in wingspan, belonging to Pieridae family. The female is greenish (I believe the female is on these photos), while the male is more intensively yellow (http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/298...).
Common butterfly through most of Eurasia and North Africa; and seen in diverse habitats. Here, observed in Natural Reserve of Jura mountain range, at 900m approx; on edge of a mixed protected forest.
