Description:
List price: £79. Describes in detail the toxic properties of burnet moths, their relationship with avian predators, their variation, both geographical and individual, and attempts to explain what causes such variation. Many genotypes responsible for the colour morphs have been determined and it is now known that these are recessive to the wildtype red morph; moreover, it has been possible to determine whether they form part of a multiple allelomorphic series, as in many cases, or, as in the variation of wing-spot pattern, whether dominance or multifactorial inheritance is involved
