The Development and Evolution of Butterfly Wing Patterns (Smithsonian Series in Comparative Evolutionary Biology) - Softcover
Synopsis
Integrating the results of comparative morphology, experiments on pattern development, the genetics of color patterns, and theoretical modeling of pattern formation, Nijhout shows that the enormous diversity of natural patterns arises largely from quantitative variations in a small set of readily understandable generating rules.
