Multiple origins of sexual dichromatism and aposematism within large carpenter bees
Evolution, 2018 The evolution of reversed sexual dichromatism and aposematic coloration has long been of interest to both theoreticians and empiricists. Yet despite the potential connections between these phenomena, they have seldom been jointly studied. Large carpenter
