This looks different. C. brassicae or are there any other options? Male or female?

It is different, since it is female.

I can't be sure, but looks like intermedia again.

So females have this black line across the abdomen?

Males have long pulvilli, females short.

Otherwise the sexes are rather similar AND variable.
The black vitta is variable in intermedia.
