Description
Gandaca harina is a small butterfly with a wingspan ranging from 35 to 45 mm. The upperside of the forewings and hindwings in males is lemon-yellow, while females are paler or greenish-white with a narrow, dark brown border on the forewing apex. The underside of both sexes is uniformly plain pale yellow without any dark markings or spots, serving as a primary distinguishing characteristic separating it from similar Eurema species.
