Transformational Mimicry in a Myrmecomorphic Spider.

The American naturalist - 1 Aug 2020

Pekár Stano, Tsai Yun-Yun, Michalko Radek

Abstract excerpt

Species that are Batesian mimics during postembryonic development shift between mimetic models as they grow in size. However, it has not yet been tested whether these successive mimetic phenotypes are similarly protected from predators. Early-instar phenotypes could represent an inaccurate phenotype or an accurate phenotype because of selection from different predators. Here, we tested the hypotheses of...
