Monarch: Dorsal View

The sexual characteristics of male and female monarchs are more apparent in the dorsal view. Males are bright orange and have small oval scent patches on their hind wings; females are orange-brown. Both sexes have black veins and black borders dotted with white on their wings; the vein markings on females are blurrier.
