About this book

Originally published in 1915, Mimicry in Butterflies was written by the renowned British geneticist Reginald Crundall Punnett (1875-1967).

Illustrative figures and notes are included. Mimicry in Butterflies will be of value to anyone with an interest in butterflies, the development of evolutionary theory and the history of science.
