Mimicry in Butterflies
Reginald Crundall Punnett
Why does a harmless butterfly wear the colors of a poisonous one? Reginald Punnett tackles the puzzle of mimicry, testing whether such disguises could be built by inheritance rather than slow selection. Full of colored wings and genetic reasoning, it is a spirited early skirmish in the study of evolution. Look closely at the deceptions painted on a butterfly's wing.
