This article should have a taxonomy or “conflicts over classification” section instead of the paragraph at the top about the trouble researchers have had classifying it. The reproduction, sexual selection, and sexual selection theory subsection could be consolidated under a behavior section instead. A section on life cycle (including images) is missing.

Update[edit]

I am a student taking a behavioral ecology course offered at my university. I added a couple sections on reproductive behavior and sexual selection. Let me know if there are any flaws/inaccuracies/things I can elaborate on! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kzyoung (talk • contribs) 21:06, 5 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I added some information that I found to the "Sexual Selection Theory" section and also inserted a new headline titled "Mating System"and provided some additional info. The reproduction section was very detailed! Future information could be on the topic of predator/prey relationships. Wmhua (talk) 17:26, 9 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I made some general grammatical edits. I also added a distribution section. I think some information that would greatly broaden the scope of this article would be the work on some general appearance, mating system, migration, habitat, etc. sections. Your section on reproduction was very nice; I think adding more on other behaviors would make this a more complete article. Ichooxu (talk) 04:16, 10 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I added an image comparison of cloudless sulphur and orange sulphur and also put in a few links for geographic regions. Great information on the reproductive behavior. adding a life cycle section will be helpful also with images of the larval and pupal stage of the orange sulphur.

I thought your original writing was really good and just made a few minor edits: I fixed some grammatical and spelling mistakes, as well as clarifying some sentences. I also added some links for key words in the article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Solon5g93 (talk • contribs) 23:00, 10 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hi! The behavioral portion of this article is very well written. In order to reach good article I would elaborate more on the distribution subheading and perhaps add other topics like predation, life cycle, and conservation status. You could also include pictures in the life cycle section, detailing the stages. Wmhua (talk) 03:08, 21 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
