Ecological significance of flight activity in Colias butterflies: implication for reproductive strategy and population structure
Abstract
The observed differences in catchability between sexes is also correlated with the sexual differences in flight behavior reported here, and the time spent in flight, short life expectancies, and time budgets of Colias suggest that the time available for flight activity during an individual's lifetime may be limited.
