Fig. 6: Photographs and wing reflectance spectra of Adelpha fessonia and A. basiloides mimetic butterflies.
From: Trichromacy is insufficient for mate detection in a mimetic butterfly
A Photographs of dorsal wings of A. fessonia (left) and A. basiloides (right) with scale bar representing 1 centimeter. Circles indicate parts of the wings where reflectance spectra were measured. Orange dots = A. fessonia left and right dorsal orange forewing patches; white dots = A. fessonia left dorsal forewing and hindwing white stripes; white circle, solid line = A. fessonia left dorsal forewing brown; pink dots = A. basiloides dorsal left and right orange forewing patches; blue dots = A. basiloides left dorsal forewing and hindwing white patches; white circle, dashed line = A. basiloides left dorsal forewing brown. B Reflectance measurements taken from A. fessonia left (n = 13 independent measurements) and right (n = 12) dorsal orange forewing patches (orange dots in A), A. fessonia left dorsal forewing (n = 13) and hindwing (n = 10) white stripes (white dots), A. basiloides left (n = 18) and right (n = 17) dorsal orange forewing patches (pink dots), and A. basiloides left dorsal forewing (n = 13) and hindwing (n = 14) white wing stripes (blue dots). Shaded areas represent standard deviations and lines (solid, A. fessonia; dashed, A. basiloides) represent means.
