the caterpillar of the butterfly colias eurytheme can be a pale green color or a bright yellow color. the yellow caterpillars are usually found in very low frequency because
they are not camouflaged as well as the green ones
they cannot find mates as well as the green ones
they cannot find alfalfa plants (their main food) as well as the green ones
they are not as toxic as the green ones
In nature, camouflage is crucial for survival. Green - colored caterpillars of Colias eurytheme are likely better camouflaged in their natural environment (such as among green leaves), making them less visible to predators. Yellow caterpillars, being less camouflaged, are more easily spotted and thus have a lower survival rate and frequency.
