Ultraviolet exposure has an epigenetic effect on a Batesian mimetic trait in the butterfly Papilio polytes
Wing polymorphism of butterflies provides a good system in which to study adaptation. The Asian Batesian mimic butterfly Papilio polytes has unmelanized, putative mimetic red spots on its black hind wings. The size of those red spots is non-heritable but it is highly polymorphic, the adaptive signif...
