You will get more chances of melanoma, but when u develop it will be in a non reproductive age. Of course socially it can have impact on ur children, but if talking strictly about spread the genes it has a detrimental effect on individuals survival, but not on the species.

The hummingbird moth is insane. It convergently evolved to look like a hummingbird and fly in a similar way. When I first saw one I had no idea it existed, I thought it was a hummingbird but was horrified to see it had insect legs and antennae.

I think my favorite part of this video is the laying out this beautiful theory about how butterflies evolved from moths to avoid bats that seemed to fit all the evidence and then was completely thrown out the window when butterflies were found to have existed during the time of the dinosaurs. Science is fun for how it can crush things like that. :)

[@Sashazur]

But even without that evidence, as the video says, it’s dumb to evolve to be active in the daytime to avoid bats, since now you’ve got to deal with birds instead which is just as bad.

[@EmpressOfExile206]

Idk if the other theory that butterflies switched to the daytime to drink flower nectar works either. It's not like moths are flying through the night hunting leopards 🤔 Don't they also drink nectar?

Correction: First came the beetles and flies as flower pollinators. Many angiosperms are older than hymenoptera and lepidoptera, like Magoliaceae, Nympheacea and Annonaceae. This leaves Diptera and Coleoptera as most likely original pollinators of the oldest flowering plants. The oldest extant angiosperms are clearly evolved to attract beetles and flies.

[@Ozraptor4]

Not anymore. The whole crux of the recent discoveries discussed in the video is that Lepidoptera were already around during the earliest Jurassic and were pre-adapted for the evolution of flowers later in the Mesozoic. Additionally, the hymenopteran fossil record now extends into the Late Triassic.

[@torres8323]

@@Ozraptor4 I haven't disagreed with the evidence in this video, and thought it was great, however a dearth of evidence leaves quite a bit of mystery around what came first, pollinators or flowers, or that they drove one another's evolution. I listened carefully to the video, nothing mentioned suggests that lepidoptera or hymenoptera predate Cleoptera or diptera as pollinators, in fact this matter was not even duacussed. And again, the oldest of flowering forms, are clearly designed for cantharphily, beetle pollination. You can see it if you know flowers well. Look at magnolias, one of the oldest of floweing families for example, no butterfly will land in its bowl shaped flower, and bees rarely visit. If one looks one will find magnolia flowers filled with beetles. Think on the morphology of flowers, bees use flowers that fit their bodies, butterflies too. Butterflies cannot use many flowers, they need something to land on. The kinds of flowers butterflies and bees use were not the oldest flowers, but instead we find the oldest flowering plants attract beetles and flies and are designed to encourage their help in pollination. It does seem, though that it was the diversification of both hymenoptera and lepidoptera that was the impetus behind the later rapid diversification of angiosperms, the beetles never really adapted further in this regard.

[@juliecruz6452]

The Coleoptera, beetles, were in fact the original pollinators. That’s one of the many reasons that this order is one of the most diverse in the whole animal kingdom, as they evolved along side the angiosperms.

[@Wilbtube]

first came the bees? My understanding is that the first pollinating animals were beetle-like (koleoptera) and that their flowers of choice were big and edible. Then came the bees, who were able to pollinate without damaging the flower - which was a considerable evolutionary advantage. This is also the reason that among the most "primitive" flowers are the large magnolias.

[@komradentomolog7701]

Isn't it spelled coleoptera.also interesting thing is some beetles actually had the normal front wings back then too,some still do to this day,although they don't use it for flight....

As far as I know, the first flowers weren't very colourful, so their eyes didn't need to be all that well adapted in the beginning. The first flower colours were white and yellow, which would have looked bright and clear enough against green leaves. I'm guessing that an accumulation of mutations in eye structure allowed them to see differing colours as flowers also began to evolve and mutate new colours.

[@lapispyrite6645]

At 0:39, you say the scales “contain coloured pigment”. This is not true. The colour of butterfly and moth wings do derive from the scales, but the scales do not contain any pigments. They instead make use of a phenomenon known as structural colour. Basically, the microstructure of the scales are at the same size as wavelengths of visible light, and the light interacts with the scale microstructure via constructive and destructive interference of the light rays. This causes the vibrant iridescent look on butterfly wings, as the light interacts differently depending on the angle you look at the butterfly. This is also how opals get their colour.

Blue butterfly made its blue pigment

[@elleboman8465]

Sorry to disappoint you but you are in the wrong. Butterfly and moth wings do use ordinary pigments like melanin as well as the structural colour of the scales. Citing the source provided by @noconflicts: "The combination of a butterfly's structural and pigmented color can create interesting effects. For example, if you saw a butterfly with yellow pigment underneath a structure that creates a blue iridescent color, you might see a green shade, made by the merging of the two colors. Or depending on your viewpoint, you might see blue, yellow, green or a combination of the three. Your view would change as the butterfly moves its wings and the light enters at different angles."
