Truly a fascinating subject in the world of butterflies, mimicry is the means by which different and unrelated species of butterflies have evolved to look very similar as a means of protection. In some cases, untoxic butterflies have evolved to appear like toxic butterflies in order to evade predators (Batesian mimicry). While in other cases, two toxic butterflies have evolved to appear very similar (Mullerian mimicry).
