@gregoeur @BeetzJerome Couldn't have said it better myself! There are a few peculiarities in Pieris relative to other butterflies (IE: no green R1,2, some green R3,4 more sensitive than others). See Blake et al. 2019, https://t.co/2kv8x91T95 https://t.co/x

Compound eyes of the small white butterfly Pieris rapae have three distinct classes of red photoreceptors. https://t.co/cPRmgZwxMd
@mbutler808 Small update to the #Pieris info. It looks like #Pieris #rapae has 3 different red pigments/photoreceptors rather than 2. https://t.co/2kv8x91T95

Cabbage white butterflies (#Pieris #rapae) use red pigments to filter light to turn green sensitive cells into red sensitive cells. In our new paper we found (https://t.co/HjVLQtrKcu) that these butterflies use 3 rather than two of these pigments to filter

Asian cabbage white butterflies (P. r. crucivora) ♂s and ♀s look different in the UV (right wings), while the Eur. butterflies (P. r. rapae) look similar. In our new paper we show that despite this, there are no differences in how they see the world. http

My new paper further investigating vision in the cabbage white butterfly (#Pieris #rapae) is online now. Myself and the other authors looked at vision in this insect using a variety of techniques to refine our understanding of how their eyes function. htt
