Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book details the author's hybridisation experiments, involving Thera variata and T. obeliscata, a pair of moth species. The author also provides a thorough examination of the characteristics of these moths, from larval stage to pupae, to adult moth. The study provides a better understanding of the relationship between the two species, their shared genus, and the physiological differences that set them apart, ultimately contributing to the broader study of moth taxonomy.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the rare phenomenon of somatic mosaics in Lepidoptera, a fascinating occurrence where an individual insect displays distinct genetic differences within its body. Tracing the history of mosaic research, the author examines how these mosaics can arise from various causes, including developmental errors, mutations, and viral infections. Drawing on numerous examples, the author discusses the profound implications of mosaicism for our understanding of genetics and evolution, highlighting its role in revealing the dynamic and complex nature of genetic change.
