  2. Wow. That was a super impressive post. Honestly, at first I thought that you must have copy and pasted a professional article off of the internet but I'm glad to be wrong. This was masterfully done. Besides the content of your words, my favorite part are the white silhouettes of butterflies and flowers around the borders of the images. Great job.

  4. Great job on your blog! It's interesting that burning and taking out certain weeds and plants actually benefits these butterflies. Also I didn't know that some species can't successfully be raised in captivity. #BIO227Fall2015

  5. I really enjoyed reading your post! I love butterflies so this was really fun for me! I thought it was really interesting that the males and females have different markings, do any external factors, like temperature, play into the gender of the offspring? #BIO227Fall2015

    1. I actually did see some information about light being an external factor of gene expression in butterflies, but I think that was more related to the color of the wings that were already designated by gender, instead of influencing gender itself. Great question!
