Species are the fundamental units of biology, but unlike similar units in chemistry and physics, the exact properties that make species different from one another are not fully understood. The goal of evolutionary developmental biology is to understand genetic variation and developmental mechanisms responsible for phenotypic differences between species. The proposed research uses buckeye butterflies (genus

物种是生物学的基本单位，但与化学和物理学中的类似单位不同，使物种彼此不同的确切属性尚未完全理解。进化发育生物学的目标是了解物种间表型差异的遗传变异和发育机制。这项拟议中的研究使用七叶树蝴蝶（属
