Responses of naive Japanese quail predators were observed to determine if, depending on the level of distastefulness they encountered, they would learn to avoid distasteful models, and then associate near-similar and less-similar palatable mimics with the models. Birds were trained to eat palatable green nonmimics. They were then offered green nonmimics and distasteful red models. Then they encountered green nonmimics and palatable orange and yellow mimics.Subjects--Topical Terms:

520 $a Responses of naive Japanese quail predators were observed to determine if, depending on the level of distastefulness they encountered, they would learn to avoid distasteful models, and then associate near-similar and less-similar palatable mimics with the models. Birds were trained to eat palatable green nonmimics. They were then offered green nonmimics and distasteful red models. Then they encountered green nonmimics and palatable orange and yellow mimics.
520 $a Control birds that encountered palatable red models learned to eat them. They significantly increased the number of near-similar and less-similar mimics eaten over time. Quail that encountered highly distasteful models learned to avoid them. They then avoided both near-similar and less similar mimics. Birds that encountered slightly distasteful models appeared unable to associate distastefulness with the models. They avoided both near-similar and less-similar mimics.
520 $a Extensive individual variation was observed. This phenomenon appears to be an important factor affecting Batesian mimicry.
