Hi,
I am new in the PSG and I want to ask anybody abaut the different colours in the specie Bacillus rossius. I am Spanish and I live in the north of Spain (in Santoña) where there is a big B. rossius population. I saw that animals have diffrent colour groups. Every population has has only one colour from light green to dark brown ( with pink, light brown, green and brown,..,) I want to know why every population has only one colour and why there are so much colour variation between population that eats the same foodplants (Rubus sp, Crataegus monogyna and Fragaria vesca) and that have the same ambiental factors. I have got photos from the different colours and I have a mixed culture that gives animals where brown is dominant vs green but I have every pure culture too.
Regards and thank you very much
