Abstract
There are original data on the current state of Pieridae family in the regions of Western Ukraine in this article. The entomological materials were collected during the own expedition and the teacher training of the students of the Faculty of Chemistry and Biology of Ternopil Volodymyr Hnatiuk National Pedagogical University in 2021. These insects are in the collections of The Botany and Zoology Department. 
 The species composition of the collected insects was analyzed. 8 species of Pieridae family were identified in the studied regions. We studied 168 individuals of Pieridae family. The investigated insects belong to 6 genera: Leptidea, Anthocharis, Pieris, Pontia, Сolias, Gonepteryx.
 We identified that some species of Pieridae family are common in Ukraine. The largest number of individuals in this family was calculated. The most popular were Pieris brassicae L., Pieris rapae L. і Pieris napi L. (Pierinae subfamily) and Сolias hyale L. (Coliadinae subfamily). There were several individuals of Leptidea sinapis L. (subfamily Dismorphiinae) and Anthocharis cardamines L. (subfamily Pierinae) in the entomological collection.
 We will conduct systematic entomological studies of the fauna of Ukraine in order to do a detailed analysis of Pieridae family and to do the ecological and faunal inventory of the insects. These data can be used for the further analysis of the changes in species diversity of Pieridae family.
