Thermoregulatory differences between phenotypes in the speckled wood butterfly: hot perchers and cold patrollers?
H Van Dyck, E Matthysen - Oecologia, 1998 - Springer
Males of the speckled wood butterfly Pararge aegeria L.(Satyrinae), actively search for

Behavioural thermoregulation and the relative roles of convection and radiation in a basking butterfly
Poikilothermic animals are often reliant on behavioural thermoregulation to elevate core-
body temperature above the temperature of their surroundings. Butterflies are able to do this …

Orientation behaviour in the Grayling butterfly: thermoregulation or crypsis?
R Findlay, MR Young, JA Findlay - Ecological Entomology, 1983 - ui.adsabs.harvard.edu
Body orientation and wing tilting in Hipparchia semele (L.) have been explained previously
both by the need for shadow‑minimization (crypsis hypothesis) and by the need to regulate …

Analysis of heat transfer in Vanessa butterflies: effects of wing position and orientation to wind and light
DM Polcyn, MA Chappell - Physiological zoology, 1986 - journals.uchicago.edu
Many diurnal lepidoptera rely on solar basking to achieve elevated thoracic temperature. We
examined the effects of wind, radiation, body orientation, and wing position on the thoracic …
