Hello, Please can you help me. Really I don't know anything about this specimen because this species is out of my collecting interest. Maybe is difficult but if you can help me to ID I appreciate that. Thank you very much. Attachments:

I'd say it's Colias electo. If it's from Africa it certainly is.

"If it's from Africa..."
Well, that's the most important point that should be emphasised - if you ask for a specimen to be identified please include as much information about the specimen as possible, especially locality data. If the locality or country of origin is unknown, then you should state that as an explanation for the lack of data.
In the case of Colias there are so many superficially similar looking species that even an expert like Bob cannot be certain from a couple of photos and no data.
Adam.

Thanks everyone. I know that I need to put more informations about that specimen. But problem is that I have recived that specimen as "gift" without any data. With some data informations included I can ID that specimen myself but in this situation where is lack of informations I need your help. That specimen looks like Colias electo and thank you for help.
