Juvenile hormone regulation of longevity in the migratory monarch butterfly.

Proceedings. Biological sciences - 22 Dec 2001

Herman W S, Tatar M

Abstract excerpt

Monarch butterflies (Danaus plexippus) of eastern North America are well known for their long-range migration to overwintering roosts in south-central Mexico. An essential feature of this migration involves the exceptional longevity of the migrant adults; individuals persist from August/September to March while their summer counterparts are likely to live less than two months as adults. Migrant adults persist...
