<p class="MsoNormal">Hi List:<br>
<br>
I read some time ago, before fact checking was an industry, that some reared Heliconius charithonia will recognize individual people that have acted threateningly or non threateningly towards them and react correspondingly days or weeks later. Can anyone send
me any info on that? My own experience with Polygonias indicates they do have that capability. I'm looking for support but any info will do.<br>
<br>
thanks<br>
Bill Cornelius<br>
