The common name derives from the bright orange tips of the male's forewings. The males are a common sight in spring, flying along hedgerows and damp meadows in search of the more reclusive female which lacks the orange and is often mistaken for other species of butterfly. The larva feeds on Brassicaceae including Alliaria, Arabis, Cardamine. The pupa hibernates.
