561. [Poulton, E. B.] A further inquiry into a special colour-relation 
between the larva of Smerinlhus ocellatus and its food-plants. 
P. R. Soc. xl, pp. 135-173. 
As the result of breeding-experiments aud larvae captured during 1885, 
he decides that particular variations of colour in larvae are to a large 
extent hereditary, and that the colour of the larvae is influenced by that 
of the food-plant ; “ the larva of Smerinlhus ocellatus maintains a colour 
relation with the food-plant upon which it was hatched, adjustable within 
the limits of a single life, and that the predominant colour of the food- 
plant itself is the stimulus which calls up a corresponding larval colour.”
