Wings are not perfect: increased wing asymmetry in a tropical butterfly as a response to forest fragmentation.

Die Naturwissenschaften - 8 Jun 2023

Pignataro Thaís, Lourenço Giselle Martins, Beirão Marina, Cornelissen Tatiana

Abstract excerpt

Habitat fragmentation and ecosystem changes have the potential to affect animal populations in different ways. To effectively monitor these changes, biomonitoring tools have been developed and applied to detect changes in population structure and/or individual traits that reflect such changes. Fluctuating asymmetry (FA) represents random deviations from perfect symmetry in bilateral traits from perfect symmetry...
