Batesian mimicry, a form of biological resemblance in which a noxious, or dangerous, organism (the model), equipped with a warning system such as conspicuous coloration, is mimicked by a harmless organism (the mimic). The mimic gains protection because predators mistake it for the model and leave

1. Introduction. Batesian mimicry evolves when individuals of a palatable species gain the selective advantage of reduced predation because they resemble a toxic species that predators avoid (Ruxton et al. 2004).This idea traces to Bates (1862), who regarded convergent evolution between a palatable species (the 'mimic') and an unpalatable one (the 'model') as, 'a most powerful proof

https://www.cell.com/current-biology/fulltext/S0960-9822(15)00437-6
Batesian mimics are palatable, undefended species that avoid predation by having evolved resemblances to unpalatable or defended 'model' species [. ]. In several butterflies with Batesian mimicry, only some individuals are mimetic, and this polymorphism has allowed the genetic control of mimicry to be studied. The genetic control is

Batesian mimicry is when a harmless species copies the honest warning signals of a dangerous species in order to avoid predation. Let's break that down. Batesian mimicry requires three species; a mimic, a model, and a predator. First is the model species. This species has some sort of honest warning signal to deter predators.

Batesian mimicry involves a palatable, unprotected species (the mimic) that closely resembles an unpalatable or protected species (the model) (Devries 1987). This theory was first presented in 1861 by H.W. Bates in his attempt to explain the similar appearance and behavior of otherwise unrelated Central American butterfly species (Devries 1987).

Batesian mimicry is a form of protective mimicry whereby one species, which is otherwise unprotected or harmless with respect to a particular predator, closely imitates in some way aspects of another species that is considered harmful or unpalatable to this common predator, and thus the mimic is avoided by the predator.For example, the mimic may adopt similar warning coloration as exhibited by

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deception_in_animals
Batesian mimicry is a form of mimicry typified by a situation where a harmless species has evolved to imitate the warning signals of a harmful species directed at a common predator. The harmful species (the model) might have spines, stingers, or toxic chemistry, while its apparent double has no defence other than resembling the unpalatable species.

How does Batesian mimicry, when a non-toxic species resembles a toxic one, affect predators and models? A new study by AMNH researchers suggests a mutualistic process that drives predation and mimicry over time.

Plate from Henry Walter Bates (1862) illustrating Batesian mimicry between Dismorphia species (top row, third row) and various Ithomiini ( Nymphalidae, second row, bottom row) In evolutionary biology, mimicry is an evolved resemblance between an organism and another object, often an organism of another species.

In Batesian mimicry, the mimic signals a fitness cost to the receiver and the mimic's signal is deceptive. More generally, a mimicry system can be classified as Batesian mimicry when the advertised costs to the receiver are greater than the actual costs.

Basic types of mimicry Batesian mimicry. In 1862 the English naturalist Henry W. Bates published an explanation for unexpected similarities in appearance between certain Brazilian forest butterflies of two distinct families. Members of one family, the Heliconiidae, are unpalatable to birds and are conspicuously coloured; members of the other family, the Pieridae, are edible to predators.

Batesian mimicry occurs when a harmless species (the mimic) has evolved to take advantage of a visual cue given off by another species (the model) that has chemical defenses. A similar appearance to a dangerous species offers the harmless species some protection from predators as they learn to avoid any animal with that particular color pattern

Batesian mimicry describes a situation where one, often palatable, species resembles another aposematic species in order to gain protection against predators. Whilst research has shown the importance of the mimic having similar colours as the model, less attention has been paid to whether it is important for the mimic to have a similar spatial
