Endocrine Control of Insect Polyphenism (2012, background): “Although the identity of the morphogen released from eyespot foci is not yet known, recent genetic studies using antibodies for Drosophila patterning genes have identified several signaling molecules and transcription factors expressed in the appropriate areas and at the appropriate times (Beldade a”
The significance of wing pattern diversity in the Lycaenidae: mate discrimination by two recently diverged species (2002, background): “Some species of butterflies exhibit phenotypic plasticity of wing coloration and pattern in response to environmental cues, such as temperature and day length (Shapiro, 1976; Brakefield et al., 1996; Brakefield & French, 1999), and in response to larval hostplant (Knüttel & Fiedler, 2001).”
