dc.description.abstract | Mimicry theory provides a lot of problems involving
natural selection, particularly sexual selection
and evolutionary routes of mimicry types. In
some butterflies there is a mimicry limited to females.
The Batesian mimicry and resulting polymorphism
limited to females is especially well known
in Papilio dardamus butterfly. This polymorphism
is controlled by 11 alleles at a single locus. Females
mimic resemble to different inedible species of butterflies,
for example those from family Danaidae.
Moreover, in P. dardanus the andromorphic females
are also known, the role of which has not been
thoroughly explained. In this review, I summarize hypotheses concerning the evolution of the mimicry-
related polymorphism in this butterfly. Recent
studies shows that avian predators attack inedible
preys more frequently when their population density
is higher. This fact does not prove the hypothesis
of the frequency-dependent advantage of mimicry.
I also describe possible evolutionary routes of the
mimicry. Female limited mimicry and monomorphic
mimicry have been evolved by independent routes.
It also seems that the hypothesis of sexual harassment
avoidance does not explain the appearance of
andromorphic females in Papilio dardamus. | pl |
