Bbaatteessiiaann mmiimmiiccrryy: a predator deterrence strategy in which a palatable species (mimic) resembles an unpalatable species (model) Mm lllleerriiaann mmiimmiiccrryy: a predator deterrence strategy in which several unpalatable species adopt a single pattern of warning colouration. Predators learn to avoid these more efficiently b/c a bad experience w/ one species confers protection on all other members of the mimicry complex. An t agon ist s evo lve i n r espo nse t o each o t h er. Cchhaarrlleess mmooddee coined the term coevolution - modeling. Concerned w/ the relationship b/w crops and their fungal pathogens (esp. rusts) Developed a model of continual evolution of a pathogen and its host in response to evolutionary changes in each other. Assumed pathogen virulence and host resistance was each controlled by a dominant gene (v, r) both costly to org. Fitness dependant on genotype of the other.
