Eyeshine and spectral tuning of long wavelength-sensitive rhodopsins: no evidence for red-sensitive photoreceptors among five Nymphalini butterfly species

Adriana D. Briscoe, Gary D. Bernard
Journal: Journal of Experimental Biology

... determined the LWS opsin gene sequence from cDNA of the mourning cloak Nymphalis antiopa, and from genomic DNA of the malachite Siproeta stelenes and the peacock Inachis io. Using an epi-microspectrophotometer we examined each butterfly's eyeshine for photochemical evidence of multiple LWS rhodopsins...

Vortex Formation in the Tethered Flight of the Peacock Butterfly Inachis IO L. (Lepidoptera, Nymphalidae) and Some Aspects of Insect Flight Evolution

Published: 1 November 1991
...A. K. Brodsky ABSTRACT High-speed filming has been used to investigate the performance of the peacock butterfly Inachis io while flying in a wind-tunnel. The wake of the butterfly in ‘feeding’ flight is a system of discrete pairs of vortex rings: in each pair the vortex rings are coupled at right...
