The Arctic white (Pieris angelika) is a cold-climate butterfly of the Pieridae family. Its main range is the Yukon, northwestern Northwest Territories and northwestern British Columbia, and Alaska.^[1] Its taxonomic name may change in the future, because there is a chance it was described and named before 1983.
