Pieris angelika (Arctic white) is a cold-climate butterfly of the Pieridae family. Its main range is the Yukon, northwestern Northwest Territories and northwestern British Columbia, and Alaska. Its taxonomic name may change in the future, because there is a chance it was described and named before 1983.
