Signal detectability and boldness are not the same: the function of defensive coloration in nudibranchs is distance-dependent

Aposematic signals visually advertise underlying anti-predatory defences in many species. They should be detectable (e.g. contrasting against the background) and bold (e.g. using internal pattern contrast) to enhance predator recognition, learning and memorization. However, the signalling function o...
