Wing morphology in migratory North American monarchs: characterizing sources of variation and understanding changes through time
Monarch butterfly wing morphology varies substantially throughout their global range, both between resident and migratory populations and also within the migratory North American population. Here, we use a dataset comprising more than 1800 North American individuals collected between 1878-2017 to ch...
