Leptosia, commonly called wood whites, is a genus of pierid butterflies. It is the only genus of the tribe Leptosiaini.[1] Leptosia are found in Africa, except for Leptosia nina, which ranges from India to Australia, and Leptosia lignea, which is found only on Sulawesi. All have a frail appearance and broad rounded wings. They are only distantly related to the Palearctic wood whites Leptidea (Dismorphiinae).

gollark: ... also array literals, bee their bad docs.

gollark: Please also give me write access to the repo.
