Biological Mimicry

🔍 Chocolate Pansy Butterfly :Junonia iphita, the chocolate pansy or chocolate soldier, is a butterfly found in Asia. The wingspan is about 5–6 cm (2.0–2.4 in) and the female can be told apart from the male by white markings on the oblique line on the underside of the hindwing. The wavy lines on the underside of the wings vary from wet- to dry-season forms. Individuals maintain a territory and are usually found close to the ground level and often bask in the sun. 🕵️ Biological Mimicry:mimicry, in biology, phenomenon characterized by the superficial resemblance of two or more organisms that are not closely related taxonomically. This resemblance confers an advantage—such as protection from predation—upon one or both organisms by which the organisms deceive the animate agent of natural selection. #mycountry2 #butterfly #nature #sharewithpindle #pindleindia #pindlegems #guidebook
