• W4385488001 abstract "Abstract In contrast to most butterflies harboring opaque wing colorations, some species display large transparent patches on their wings. Wing transparency, which entails a dramatic reduction of pigmentation, raises the question of potential costs for vital functions, such as thermoregulation, especially along climatic gradients. The thermal melanism hypothesis posits that darker colorations should be favored in colder environments, which enables them to absorb more radiation and maintain a body temperature compatible with activity. This prediction extends to the near infrared (NIR) range, which represents a large proportion of solar radiation. Here we assess the implications of wing transparency for light absorption and thermal properties in 42 butterfly species from the neotropical tribe Ithomiini that range the extent of transparency, from fully opaque to highly transparent, and we test whether those species conform to the prediction of the thermal melanism hypothesis. We find that transparent wings are less efficient than opaque wings to absorb light across UV, Visible and NIR wavelength ranges, and are also less efficient to collect heat. Moreover, dark coloration occupies a lower proportion of wing area as altitude increases, and ithomiine species harbor more transparency at higher altitudes, where climatic conditions are colder, going strongly against the prediction of the thermal melanism hypothesis. We discuss these surprising results in light of recent studies suggesting that factors other than adaptation to cold, such as predation pressure, physiology or behavior, may have driven the evolution of wing patterns in Ithomiini. Significance Statement The thermal melanism hypothesis predicts that organisms should be darker and absorb solar radiation more efficiently in colder environments. The Neotropical butterflies Ithomiini are unusual in that many species harbor large transparent patches on their wings, raising questions related to their efficacy of solar radiation absorption and heating capacities. We investigate optical and thermal properties of several ithomiine species along a climatic gradient. We find that transparent wings are less efficient at absorbing radiation and collecting heat. Unexpectedly, the proportion of transparent species increases with altitude, challenging the thermal melanism hypothesis and suggesting that factors other than adaptation to cold, such as predation pressure, may have driven the evolution of wing patterns in Ithomiini." @default.
