Müllerian mimicry: sharing the load reduces the legwork.

Richard M Merrill1, Chris D Jiggins.   

Abstract

Color pattern mimicry has long been held up as a powerful example of natural selection. A recent study supports the theory by describing Müllerian mimicry rings in Appalachian millipedes that are analogous to those observed in tropical butterflies.
