The Heliconius butterflies are one of the classic systems in
evolutionary biology and have contributed hugely to our
understanding of evolution over the last 150 years. Their dramatic
radiation and remarkable mimicry has fascinated biologists since
the days of Bates, Wallace, and Darwin. The Ecology and Evolution
of Heliconius Butterflies is the first thorough and accessible
treatment of the ecology, genetics, and behaviour of these
butterflies, exploring how they offer remarkable insights into
tropical biodiversity. The book starts by outlining some of the
evolutionary questions that Heliconius research has helped to
address, then moves on to an overview of the butterflies themselves
and their ecology and behaviour before focussing on wing pattern
evolution, and finally, speciation. Richly illustrated with 32
colour plates, this book makes the extensive scientific literature
on Heliconius butterflies accessible to a wide audience of
professional ecologists, evolutionary biologists, entomologists,
and amateur collectors.
