Dear Ms Nichols,
Since you submitted three different species representing two different families from two different states, you have wreaked havoc with our system of archiving postings. You have a Variegated Fritillary, a Common Buckeye and a female Io Moth.
It is interesting that both the Common Buckeye and the female Io Moth have evolved to employ the same defensive devices, false eyespots, to deter predators.
