Hybrid speciation in Heliconius butterflies? A review and critique of the evidence.

Genetica - 1 May 2011

Brower Andrew V Z

Abstract excerpt

The evidence supporting the recent hypothesis of a homoploid hybrid origin for the butterfly species Heliconius heurippa is evaluated. Data from selective breeding experiments, mate-choice studies, and a wide variety of DNA markers are reviewed, and an alternative hypothesis for the origin of the species and its close relatives is proposed. A scenario of occasional red wing-pattern mutations in peripheral...
