Disruptive coloration and background pattern matching

Nature, 2005
Effective camouflage renders a target indistinguishable from irrelevant background objects. Two interrelated but logically distinct mechanisms for this are background pattern matching (crypsis) and disruptive coloration: in the former, the animal's colours are a random sample of the background; in the latter, bold contrasting colours on the animal's ...

Disruptive sexual selection for plumage coloration in a passerine bird

Nature, 2000
The theory of sexual selection was developed to explain the evolution of highly exaggerated sexual ornaments. Now supported by vast empirical evidence, sexual selection is generally considered to favour individuals with the most extreme trait expression.

Disruptive selection on plumage coloration across genetically determined morphs [PDF]

Animal Behaviour, 2017
Sexual selection can drive the evolution of conspicuous visual signals that advertise individual quality to prospective mates. Reproductive strategy can influence the balance between selective pressures and whether sexually selected signals evolve.

Disruptive Coloration in Butterflies: Lack of Support in Anartia fatima

Science, 1980
Experimental obliteration of high-contrast wing stripes of the neotropical butterfly Anartia fatima affected neither survival nor wing damage in a natural population over a 5-month period. There is no direct evidence supporting the hypothesis that so-called disruptive wing patterns function as protective coloration ...
