10、new evidence to help solve one of the worlds oldest mysteries-zebras stripes. Researchers recently described experiments showing that horse flies have a difficult time landing on zebras while easily landing on horses of a single color.In one experiment, the researchers put blankets with stripes on h

The report was published in the journal PLOS ONE.Closely related to horses, the worlds three zebra speci

The appearance of the stripes is different from one zebra to the next.There have been four main theories about the reasons why zebras developed stripes. The first theory is to avoid attacks b

14、s.Only the last stands up, Caro said. Most biologists involved in research on mammal coloration accept that this is the reason why zebras have stripes.

The story was far from over. Just a week after Hunters sisters wedding, he received a package in his mail. And guess

23、 what? There was his wallet! Surprisingly, the wallet was not the only thing that was inside the package. It also had a handwritten note for Hunter which turned out to be a bonus!

Well, sometimes the best disguise is actually the most dazzling because research reveals that flashy metallic iridescence(金屬彩虹色) can visually puzzle predators, which allows

30、colorful prey to survive another day. Those surprising results appear in the journal Scientific Reports.Shining iridescent color, which changes depending on the angle from which its viewed, is favored by everything from birds to beetles and blossoms to butterflies.“And in our research group we are o

31、f course interested in why this vivid metallic color is so widespread in nature.” Karin Kjernsmo of the University of Bristol adds that in some cases the showy splashes of light are a sexual strategy. “Here I would like to point out that in some species, particularly those that display strong sexual

32、 dimorphism(雌雄兩性), such as birds of paradise or some butterflies or fishes, the occurrence of iridescence is most likely driven by sexual selection. For example, in many of these cases it is the males that have these vivid iridescent colors and they use them in mate choice or they use them as a sign

33、al to attract mates.” But iridescence also shows up in situations where reproduction is not an issue. “So what we are studying now is whether natural selection imposed by predation(捕食行為) could explain the occurrence of iridescence in prey animals.”The idea that eyecatching colors could be used as a

34、coverup isnt a new one.“The father of camouflage theory, Abbott Thayer, really believed that iridescence should be categorized as a camouflage strategy. And he wrote in his famous lifework ConcealingColoration in the Animal Kingdom, already in 1909, that brilliantly changeable or metallic colors are

35、 among the strongest factors in an animals concealment. And this sounds like a completely unreasonable thing to say, because how can colors that are both brilliant and changeable contribute to animals concealment？”“In a similar way, we were asking whether iridescence, due to its changeability, could

36、 work as a form of camouflage by preventing shape recognition.” Kjernsmo and her colleagues trained bumblebees to associate a particular shapea circle or an ovalwith a sugar reward. And they found that the bees, when given a choice, would preferentially visit the shape they knew to be sweet. But whe

37、n the shapes were iridescent, the bees had trouble telling them apart. “It seemed that the strikingly iridescent surfaces on our targets visually broke up the otherwise recognizable shape of the targets, which made them hard to distinguish.” As for making use of this method for hiding in plain sight

38、, “Any practical applications is of course directly linked to any industry that has an interest in camouflage, that is how to conceal objects or make them more difficult to recognize.” The researchers are currently conducting experiments with birds, which often prey on iridescent insects to see if i
