Color vision is thought to play a key role in the evolution of animal coloration, while achromatic vision is rarely considered as a mechanism for species recognition. We examined the eyeshine and phot
This dataset contains maternal reproductive output data, embryonic development data and offspring performance data for the Speckled Wood butterfly, Pararge aegeria. The data were collected from a labo
Batesian mimics that show similar coloration to unpalatable models gain a fitness advantage of reduced predation. Beyond physical similarity, mimics often exhibit behaviour similar to their models, fu
We caught females of either forest or agricultural ecotype and allowed their larval offspring to experience early-habitat cues in either open field or woodland conditions. Two times a week, grass pots
