A population dynamic model of Batesian mimicry
Researches on Population Ecology, 1993Summary A population dynamic model of Batesian mimicry, in which populations of both model and mimetic species were considered, was analyzed. The probability of a predator catching prey on each encouter was assumed to depend on the frequency of the mimic.

Imperfect Batesian Mimicry and the Conspicuousness Costs of Mimetic Resemblance
American Naturalist, 2010We apply signal detection methodology to make predictions about the evolution of Batesian mimicry. Our approach is novel in three ways. First, we applied a deterministic evolutionary modeling system that allows a large number of alternative mimetic morphs to coexist and compete.

The eco-evolutionary dynamics of Batesian mimicry
Journal of Theoretical Biology, 2023Batesian mimicry is a strategy in which palatable prey species (mimic-species) resemble unpalatable prey species with aposematism (model-species). Theoretical studies on Batesian mimicry have been conducted in terms of their evolutionary significance and ecological consequences.

Spectacular Batesian mimicry in ants
Naturwissenschaften, 2004The mechanism by which palatable species take advantage of their similarity in appearance to those that are unpalatable, in order to avoid predation, is called Batesian mimicry. Several arthropods are thought to be Batesian mimics of social insects; however, social insects that are Batesian mimics among themselves are rare.

Mimetic gain in batesian and Müllerian mimicry
Oecologia, 1982Starting from field investigations and experiments on mimetic butterfly populations a model for two mimetic species is developed. The model comprises various features such as the growth rates and carrying capacities of the two species, their unpalatability to predators, the recruitment and the training of the predators and, most important, the ...

Models of population genetics of Batesian mimicry
Theoretical Population Biology, 1972Abstract A mathematical model has been set up to investigate the changes in frequency of a gene inducing Batesian mimicry, due to selective predation. The selective force acting on this gene is frequency dependent since the tendency of predators to eat the mimic varies with the abundance of the mimic itself relative to the appropriate distasteful ...
