Mud puddling by butterflies is not a simple matter
Abstract
Two sets of hypotheses based on sodium limitation have been proposed to explain the sexual dimorphism in puddling hchaviour, which suggested that males have a greater need for sodium in neuroniuscular activity because they spend a larger time in flight than females.
