Twilight Fighting in the Evening Brown Butterfly, Melanitis leda (L.) (Nymphalidae): Age and Residency Effects

Behavioral Ecology and Sociobiology, 2003
Butterflies are conspicuous among animals that fight for mating opportunities because it is not clear how contest costs could accrue. Nevertheless, the bulk of research in this group suggests that contests are settled on the basis of asymmetries in fighting ability (the superior competitor hypothesis).

Tropical Dry and Wet Season Polyphenism in the Butterfly Melanitis leda (Satyrinae): Phenotypic Plasticity and Climatic Correlates

Biological Journal of the Linnean Society, 1987
Changes in wing pattern, colour, shape and size associated with seasonal polyphenism in Melanitis leda were quantified using a series of 155 butterflies collected by N. Manders on Mauritius in 1905. Butterflies of the wetter period were predominantly of the wet season form with large, well differentiated eyespots, short tails, smaller wings and a ...

Visual mate‐searching behaviour in the evening brown butterfly, Melanitis leda (L.) (Lepidoptera: Nymphalidae)

Australian Journal of Entomology, 2002
Abstract As in most animals, male butterflies are generally the more proactive sex with respect to seeking out mating opportunities. In most cases, males conduct their search sometime between mid‐morning and mid‐afternoon, but a few species are active only before dawn or after sunset.

Contrasting lifetime patterns of territorial success in the nymphalid butterflies Hypolimnas bolina and Melanitis leda: a question of flight physiology?

Australian Journal of Zoology, 2006
Territorial behaviour is widespread among insects and serves as an important constituent of male reproductive success. In butterflies, competition for perching sites is mediated through aerial persistence duels in which the mechanisms of resolution have remained obscure. There is evidence in some species for an effect of age upon contest outcome, which
