Conservation of sensory pathways implies a localised change in the mushroom bodies is associated with cognitive evolution in Heliconius butterflies

Elizabeth A Hodge, Denise Dalbosco Dell’Aglio, Antoine Couto…·Stephen Hugh Montgomery

The paper investigates how visual behaviour in Heliconius butterflies evolved through changes in mushroom body structure without increased investment in visual pathways.

Modality specific memory enhancement in Heliconius butterflies

Elizabeth A. Hodge, Amaia Alcalde Anton, Louise Bestea…·Stephen H. Montgomery

Heliconius butterflies retain odour associations over eight days no better than outgroup Heliconiini, contrasting with their superior visual long-term memory, consistent with a modality-specific memory enhancement.
