The evolution of sexual secondary characteristics necessitates regulatory factors that confer sexual identity to differentiating tissues and cells. In Colias eurytheme butterflies, males exhibit two specialized wing scale types-ultraviolet-iridescent (UVI) and spatulate scales-which are absent in fe...
