Can anyone identify this caterpillar we found on a cauliflower? This was the only photo we could get of it.

Location : Ceres, Fife, Scotland

  • $\begingroup$ Hi Chris it was found in Ceres, Fife, Scotland. I thought it could perhaps be a Green-veined White caterpillar? $\endgroup$ Commented Oct 9, 2014 at 21:21

or a green-veined white:

Both exist where you are, and the former is more common than the latter. I can't tell them apart, but consulting the pages might help.
