The evolution of a Müllerian mimic in a spatially distributed community.

Journal of theoretical biology - 7 Nov 2005

Joron Mathieu, Iwasa Yoh

Abstract excerpt

Strong positive density-dependence should lead to a loss of diversity, but warning-colour and Müllerian mimicry systems show extraordinary levels of diversity. Here, we propose an analytical model to explore the dynamics of two forms of a Müllerian mimic in a heterogeneous environment with two al...
