Selfish herd effects in aggregated caterpillars and their interaction with warning signals

R. Kersh-Mellor, S. H. Montgomery, C. F. McLellan

The paper tests Hamilton's selfish herd theory by exposing artificial caterpillar targets to bird predation, finding central targets survive better and warning signals enhance group survival.

Warning coloration, body size and the evolution of gregarious behavior in butterfly larvae

C. F. McLellan, I. C. Cuthill, S. H. Montgomery

The paper investigates the evolutionary relationships between gregariousness, aposematism, and body size in butterfly larvae, finding aposematism often precedes gregariousness and body size affects coloration in solitary larvae.
