Extremely rare butterfly species reappeared in London.


London: Enthusiasts and naturalists are buzzing with excitement over the recent sightings of an extremely rare butterfly species that was thought to be extinct in Britain for nearly a century.
Elusive black-veined white butterflies have made a mysterious comeback, fluttering across fields and hedgerows on the outskirts of London.
Initially mistaken for common cabbage white butterflies, these small numbers of black-veined whites have been spotted in southeast London.
The species was officially declared extinct in Britain in 1925, making their sudden reappearance all the more remarkable.
The black-veined whites, known for their medium size and distinctive black vein patterns on their wings, were historically listed as a British species during the reign of King Charles II.
Their preferred habitat consists of hawthorn and blackthorn trees, where they have been observed gracefully flitting between hedgerows.
