Foraging Behavior of the Dead Leaf Butterfly, Kallima inachus
The behavioral responses of foraging adults of Kallima inachus (Boisduval) (Lepidoptera: Nymphalidae) to four colors and to six different fermented fruit juices were observed in order to determine the cues used by foraging adults. According to the results, adults did not show a behavioral response to red, yellow, purple, or white artificial flowers without food odors, but flowers with the ferme...
متن کاملIntimidating butterflies.
Many butterfly species feature two or four conspicuously coloured eyespots on their wings; the most commonly heard explanation for these markings is that they are used to intimidate predators.

Now, Adrian Vallin and colleagues have demonstrated empirically the effectiveness of these signals in dissua...

One of the greatest pleasures in research is to discover (or more accurately, to rediscover) a gem of a paper that has been in the literature for some time but whose findings or pro...
متن کاملThunderstorms Don’t Get Butterflies
One important limitation on the accuracy of weather forecasts is imposed by unavoidable errors in the specification of the atmosphere’s initial state. Much theoretical concern has been focused on the limits to predictability imposed by small-scale errors, potentially even those on the scale of a butterfly. Very modest errors at much larger scales may nevertheless pose a more important practical...
متن کاملIrreversible Dynamos in Butterflies
We study the propagation of information in a network in the presence of permanent faults, to detect the patterns of initial faults which may lead the entire system to fail. Such patterns, called dynamos, have been already studied in diierent contexts and topologies, and under diierent laws of fault propagation. In our model each node assumes a new state according to the majority of the states o...
