Mylothris agathina are native to sub Saharan Africa, particularly East Africa and southern Africa. 
   They are most often found in savannas, forests, grasslands, open woodlands and bushvelds.
   They are often spotted in suburban gardens, especially in tree tops. They preferences are areas with abundant flowering plants.
   The slow flying adults are on wing year round, with peaks in October and from late February to April.
   The best time to find Mylothris agathina is in the morning or evening on a warm, sunny day, as these are their most active times. 
   They have bright white wings with shades of yellow, and black dots along the wing margins.
   They are an efficient pollinator and can often be seen flitting between the flowers of the Asteraceae and Brassicaceae families, attracted by the vibrant colors and attractive fragrances.
   As they ingest pollen, they also inadvertently  collect and deposit it, aiding in the reproduction of the plant.
   Males often mud puddle to take necessary nutrients.
   Predation is a threat primarily from birds, reptiles, and insects.
