A new study by @grahancock.bsky.social, Innes Cuthill and @jtroscianko.bsky.social used genetic algorithms to show how lighting and habitat geometry shape the evolution of camouflage, altering optimal colours, patterns and countershading in changing environments. plos.io/4uQG2cZ

Visual camouflage evolution in animals depends on both light’s interaction with its surroundings and the limits of what the natural observers of the camouflage can see. Changes in lighting – such as…
