Polymorphic Batesian mimics are often expected to track the distributions of their respective model species. We found substantial overlap among color morphs of Volucella bombylans and their putative Bombus models, while habitat suitability for Bombus lapidarius positively predicted the occurrence of all three hoverfly morphs.

Cartografia e modernità L’evoluzione dei paradigmi comunicativi
L’esperienza maturata nel campo cartografico durante la Seconda Guerra Mondiale è stata fondamentale per una nuova visione della disciplina. La guerra aveva infatti portato i geografi a dover ripensare le mappe per uso bellico che, abbandonate le ...

A Lizard Predation Experiment Demonstrates Batesian Ant Mimicry in Camponotus lateralis
Adaptiveness of ant mimicry was tested in an experimental terrarium with eight glass bowls with three ants each using lizards as real predators (dotted lines show holes; full lines show barriers). Bowls 1, 2, 7, and 8 were stocked with inaccurate and accurate mimics, Bowls 3–6 with the model.

Coloration serves several fitness‐related functions, including thermoregulation, immunity, social signaling, sexual selection, and predator avoidance. Consequently, color polymorphism can have a significant impact on a species’ interactions with its environment, including its relationships with predators, prey, and potential mates. The wood tiger moth (

Il fascino discreto delle mappe in letteratura: da Shakespeare a Ortelius
The term mapp'ry is analyzed through famous works of the English Renaissance. The author's intention is to explain the meaning of the ancient word, that disappeared from contemporary texts but useful to clarify the intrinsic value of cartography even ...

Resolving the paradox of local warning signal diversity: A framework for hypothesis testing
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Defended prey often evolve conspicuous colorations that advertise their unprofitability to predators. These visual advertisements act as honest warning signals that predators can use to avoid these prey through associative learning.

Mappe concettuali, flussi di conoscenza e sviluppo professionale continuo
Uno dei possibili approcci per integrare processi di apprendimento formale, non-formale e informale nei contesi dello sviluppo professionale continuo è quello di ricreare, all’interno di un evento formativo formale, le tipiche dinamiche che innescano i ...

Using citizen‐science records, we analysed ecogeographic patterns of colour polymorphism in two closely related centipede species across Japan. While two colour morphs in Scolopendra mutilans are broadly sympatric, they are geographically restricted in S. japonica despite overlapping climatic niches and biotic interactions.
