Why do some species evolve conspicuous coloration as a warning signal whereas other evolve this coloration as a sexual signal?

Turns out that ancestral diel activity can help explain this pattern.

Yesterday was a historic day in plant biotech: a purple tomato engineered with high antioxidants was approved by @USDA @BigPurpleTomato helps prevent cardiovascular disease and fight cancer in humans.
This approval under new regulation ushers in a new era for plant synbio!

[Suzanne Williams @STWilliams_NHM]

This is a really great meeting for young malacologists! Really friendly and lots of people give their first talks here.

[Malacological Society of London @MalacSoc]

Don't forget that registration is open for our *free* annual meeting! 🐌

Submit your abstract before 1st Oct to present a talk or poster with us @NHM_Science or online this November! 🦪

The Forum is a friendly, relaxed meeting - perfect for ongoing or early-career projects! 🐙
