Fitness costs of thermal reaction norms for wing melanisation in the large white butterfly (Pieris brassicae).
The large white butterfly, Pieris brassicae, shows a seasonal polyphenism of wing melanisation, spring individuals being darker than summer individuals. This phenotypic plasticity is supposed to be an adaptive response for thermoregulation in natural populations. However, the variation in individual...
