Butterfly eyespots have become a popular model system for the study of evolution and development. |
|

The larvae have a non-retracting head capsule, consisting of sclerotized chitin, which bears opposing mandibles, antennae, eyespots, and various other sensory structures. |
|
There is occasionally a row of small diffuse orange spots or one or two small eyespots above and beneath. |
|
The bodies are light and ill-defended, except for the armored face, which is designed to draw attacks to it, like the eyespots on butterfly wings. |
|
The colorful eyespots on butterfly wings may be patterned by a mechanism similar to that used to organize the proximo-distal axis of the insect leg. |
|
In the peacock butterfly, Inachis io, eyespots are typically hidden during rest and suddenly exposed by the butterfly when disturbed. |
|
Scyphozoan polyps and medusae exhibit no cephalization and contain no brain, but in some species, light-sensitive eyespots are located along the bell margin of the medusa. |
|
In some caterpillars, coloration is conspicuous or is augmented by the presence of features such as false eyespots, which may serve to deceive or frighten predators. |
|
The appearance of larval structures, such as the velum, statocyst, left and right digestive diverticula, eyespots, and propodium was recorded. |
|
Globin isoforms with variant properties and functions have been found in the pseudocoel, body wall and cuticle of various nematode species and even in the eyespots of the insect-parasite Mermis nigrescens. |
|
In one experiment, subjects made more generous decisions in a computer game when the screen displayed eyespots. |
|
A hawkmoth caterpillar in a Costa Rican cloud forest displays conspicuous eyespots and a soft, fake stinger. |
