It replaced an older fort called the Fort de Goede Hoop which was constructed from clay and timber and built by Jan van Riebeeck upon his arrival at the Cape of Good Hope in 1652. Two redoubts, Redoubt Kyckuit (Lookout) and Redoubt Duijnhoop (Duneheap) were built at the mouth of the Salt River in 1654. The purpose of the Dutch settlement in the Cape was to act as a replenishment station for ships passing the treacherous coast around the Cape on long voyages between the Netherlands and the Dutch East Indies (now Indonesia).

That same year, Commander Zacharias Wagenaer, successor to Jan van Riebeeck, was instructed by Commissioner Isbrand Goske to build a pentagonal fortress out of stone. The first stone was laid on 2 January 1666. Work was interrupted frequently because the Dutch East India Company was reluctant to spend money on the project. On 26 April 1679, the five bastions were named after the main titles of William III of Orange-Nassau: Leerdam to the west, with Buuren, Katzenellenbogen, Nassau, and Oranje clockwise from it.

It was used to announce the time, as well as warning citizens in case of danger, since it could be heard 10 kilometres away. It was also rung to summon residents and soldiers when important announcements needed to be made. The fortress housed a church, bakery, various workshops, living quarters, shops, and cells, among other

A wall, built to protect citizens in case of an attack, divides the inner courtyard, which also houses the De Kat Balcony, which was designed by Louis Michel Thibault with reliefs and sculptures by Anton Anreith. The original was built in 1695, but rebuilt in its current form between 1786 and 1790. From the balcony, announcements were made to soldiers, slaves and "burghers" of the Cape. The balcony leads to the William Fehr collection of paintings and antique furniture. During

The walls of the castle were extremely thick, but night after night, Duquesne dug away the cement around the stones with an iron spoon. He nearly escaped one night, but a large stone slipped and pinned him in his tunnel. The next morning, a guard found him unconscious but alive. In 1936,

It prefers poor, dry upland soils, but is also found in moist mixed woodlands. Living only about 30 years, it is a common pioneer species on abandoned fields and burned areas. Gray birch grows quickly to 20 to 30 feet tall and 15 inch trunk diameter, with an irregular open crown of slender branches. The tree often has

They are dark green and glabrous above and paler below, with a coarsely serrated margin. The bark is chalky to grayish white with black triangular patches where branch meets trunk. It is most easily confused for the paper birch ("Betula papyrifera") by means of its bark; it is smooth and thin but does not readily exfoliate like paper birch does. The flowers are wind-pollinated catkins 5–8 cm long, the male catkins pendulous and

It has been introduced to Western Europe as a prized sport fish and is now found from the United Kingdom all the way east to Kazakhstan and China and south to Greece and Turkey. It is a scaleless freshwater fish recognizable by its broad, flat head and wide mouth. Wels catfish can live for at least fifty years. The wels catfish

It prefers to remain in sheltered locations such as holes in the riverbed, sunken trees, etc. It consumes its food in the open water or in the deep, where it can be recognized by its large mouth. Wels catfish are kept in fish ponds as food fish. Like most freshwater bottom feeders, the wels catfish lives on annelid worms, gastropods, insects, crustaceans, and fish. Larger specimens have been observed to eat frogs, mice, rats, aquatic birds such as ducks and can also be cannibalistic. According to a study published by researchers

Out of all beaching behaviors observed and filmed in this study, 28% of them were successful in bird capture. Stable isotope analyses of catfish stomach contents using carbon 13 and nitrogen 15 revealed a highly variable dietary composition of terrestrial birds. This is likely the result of adapting their behavior to forage on novel prey in response to new environments upon its introduction to the Tarn River

The wels catfish's mouth contains lines of numerous small teeth, two long barbels on the upper jaw and four shorter barbels on the lower jaw. It has a long anal fin that extends to the caudal fin, and a small sharp dorsal fin relatively far forward. It relies largely on hearing and smell for hunting prey, but its eyes have a tapetum lucidum, providing the advantage of night vision, contrary to popular belief that the wels has poor eyesight. With its

Skin colour varies with environment. Clear water will give the fish a black color, while muddy water will often tend to produce green-brown specimens. The underside is always pale yellow to white in colour. Albinistic specimens are known to exist and are caught occasionally. The wels swims by undulating its long, muscular tail in a wave-like action, similar to crocodilians. They can also swim backwards. With a possible total length up to and a

However, such lengths are rare and were hard to prove during the last century, but there is a somewhat credible report from the 19th century of a wels catfish of this size. "Brehms Tierleben" cites Heckl's and Kner's old reports from the Danube about specimens long and in weight, and Vogt's 1894 report of a specimen caught in Lake Biel which was long and weighed . In 1856, K. T. Kessler wrote

There are concerns about the ecological impact of introducing the wels catfish to non-native regions. These concerns take into account the situation in Lake Victoria in Africa, where Nile perch were introduced and rapidly caused the extinction

The introduction of foreign species is almost always a burden on the affected ecosystem. Following the introduction of wels catfish, some fishes' numbers are in clear and rapid decline. Since its introduction in the Mequinenza Reservoir in 1974, it has spread to other parts of the Ebro basin, including its tributaries, especially the Segre River.

All species have calls similar to the house sparrow's "chirrup" or "tschilp" call, and some, though not the house sparrow, have elaborate songs. Most of its members are found naturally in open habitats in the warmer climates of Africa and southern Eurasia. Evolutionary studies suggest the genus originated in Africa. Several species have adapted

Apart from this natural colonisation, the house sparrow has been introduced to many parts of the world outside its natural range, including the Americas, sub-Saharan Africa, and Australia. The Eurasian tree sparrow has also been artificially introduced on a smaller scale, with populations in Australia and locally in Missouri and Illinois in the United States. "Passer" sparrows build an untidy nest, which, depending on species and

"Passer" sparrows are primarily ground-feeding seed-eaters, though they also consume small insects especially when breeding. A few species, like the house sparrow and northern grey-headed sparrow scavenge for food around cities, and are almost omnivorous. Most "Passer" species are gregarious and

title: Dioon content: Dioon Dioon is a genus of cycads in the family Zamiaceae. It is native to Mexico and Central America. Their habitats include tropical forests, pine-oak forest, and dry hillsides, canyons and coastal dunes. Dioons are dioecious, palmlike shrubs with cylindrical stems, usually with many leaves. The species in the genus Dioon are perennial, evergreen cycads with cylindrical stem axis is partially in the ground. The plant is thickened and made of soft wood, rarely having above ground branches.Leaf bases are persistent or shedding to leave smooth bark. Leaf bases are persistent or shedding to leave smooth bark. The leaves are


title: Dioon content: pinnate, spirally arranged, interspersed with cataphylls, with leaflets not articulated and lacking a midrib. The lower leaflets are often reduced to spines. The sporophylls are not in vertical rows in cones, and the megasporophyll apices are broadly flattened, upturned, and overlapping. Species in the genus Dioon have 2n = 18 chromosomes. The largest species is D. spinolosum, which are over 16 meters high and whose trunk diameter can reach 40 centimeters. However, typical specimens of other species are only between three and six feet high or remain even smaller. Dioon can get very old, maybe even over 1000 years. "Dioon


title: Dioon content: edule" and "Dioon tomasellii" have the most widespread ranges. Most species have highly limited geographical ranges. The leaves are paired pinnate and are spirally on the stem axis. Some leaves are initially wrapped in protective leaves during their development, which are called cataphyll. Unlike other cycads such as "Stangeria eriopus", the juvenile fins are not curled either transversely or longitudinally, but straight. The lower leaflets are often reduced to their petiole. The petioles are uncorned and thickened at the base. The leaflets are simple, often with a prickly edge. The primary nerve consists of many forked dividing nerves, without a


title: Dioon content: recognizable midrib. The nerves spring directly from the edge of the leaf rhachis and then run towards the plumage axis. The spars are hairy at least on young leaves. The hairs (trichomes) are colorless, branched or simple. The stomata for the gas exchange are found either only on the underside of the leaf, or in some species on both sides. Glands are not otherwise colored and difficult to identify. The cells of the leaf epidermis are extended parallel to the plumage axis. Like other cycads, coral-like roots are sometimes formed that grow up from the primary root and branch out


title: Dioon content: quickly just below the soil surface. The individual roots are thickened rhizomes and are inhabited by cyanobacteria of the genus Nostoc, which mainly used them for nitrogen fixation. There also seems to be a symbiotic relationship with arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi. All "Dioons" are dioecious, having either male or female organs, but only on different individuals. The male cone is stalked. The male cone scales called microsporophyll, which are flattened and bent upwards, sterile at the tip . They are arranged spirally around the pin axis. Each microsporophyll carries on its underside (abaxial side) a variety of pollen sacs. These open


title: Dioon content: with slots, from which the pollen then escapes. The pollen grains are streamlined and have only one germ line (monosulcate). The male cones fall off after one year. The female cones are also stalked and can remain on the plant for more than a year. The female microsporophyll are more leaf-like than those of other cycads, the greatest similarity to those of the genus "Cycas". The scales are flattened at the top, widened and bent up. Each sporophyll carries two, rarely three, ovules. These are straight to the axis (orthotropic), are inclined inwardly to this (inverse) and hang on the


title: Dioon content: axis-facing side of the thickened scales. The opening at the tip of the ovules (micropyle) is very small, leaving only a narrow opening on the Nucellus. The megaspore sheath thickened from 3-4.5 microns in the young ovule to 9-10 microns in the mature seed. The number of archegonia varies between one and ten. The nucleus of the egg is unusually large. The largest female cones of the genus "D. spinolosum" shows up to 80 centimeters in length and a diameter of up to 30 centimeters. The seeds are spherical, ovate or ellipsoidal and reach a diameter between about one and


title: Dioon content: four centimeters. They are surrounded by a fleshy, white or cream-colored seed coat. The seed coat consists of three layers, a fleshy outer and inner layer, between which a layer of stone cells lies. The embryo is straight with two cotyledons, these are fused at the top. The embryo carrier (suspensor) is very long and spirally twisted. The seeds are radiated (radiosperm). The germination takes place cryptocotylar, ie the cotyledons remain during germination in the seed. "Dioon" species can be found in Central America between the 15th and 29th northern latitude and are part of the Neotropical floral kingdom. The


title: Dioon content: distribution area includes Honduras and parts of Mexico; it is limited by orographic conditions (height structures) and limited to the north to south mountain ranges in the region. Despite the widespread distribution and ecological plasticity of the genus it is not a vegetation-determining component. The species are found mainly in the tropical rain forest and in tropical wet forests, but also in tropical deciduous rainforests, with softwood rainforests, on dry, rocky slopes, in canyons and on dunes near the coast. At the beginning of the Cenozoic, about 65.5 million years ago, the distribution area of "Dioon" probably included most of


title: Dioon content: North America. Fossil found in northern Alaska from the Eocene (33.9 - 55.8 ka) indicate this. While the climate was still very warm at the beginning of this geological age, around 2.8 million years ago, the early ice age began with the icing of the North Pole, causing the distribution of "Dioon" to shrink very sharply. In the Paleocene (55.8 - 65.5 ka) Dioon was next to "Zamia" and "Anemia" the only today neotropical genus that was still present in the flora of Alaska. During the Tertiary period, about 2.6 million years ago, "Dioons" died in almost all of North


title: Dioon content: America with only a few relic collections remained in a small area in Central America, where today still the diversity center of the genus lies. A spread to South America was not possible because the two continents were not connected until about 3 million years ago. After that, the size of the seeds was the main obstacle to further spreading "Dioon" into the Caribbean and further south. Pollination of "Dioon" by wind pollination or by animals, has not yet been determined. The nature of the pollen (light, dry, very large number) rather suggests a wind pollination, also increases the number


title: Dioon content: of fertilized ovules in the immediate vicinity of a pollen source. On the other hand, the inverse position of the ovules speaks against wind pollination, as the pollen is difficult to escape there and fall mainly on the sterile sections in the cone. For cycads of the genus "Zamia" already a pollination by the weevil "Rhopalotria mollis" has been detected. Species of the genus "Rhopalotria" could also be found in cones of "Dioon", in which there was also a large number of beetles of the genus "Pharaxonotha", which feed on pollen indicating pollination by animals. The genus is particularly at


title: Dioon content: risk from habitat destruction, the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) lists ten of the eleven species in a vulnerable category on their Red List. One species, "D. caputoi", is considered to be critically endangered, three as endangered ("D. holmgrenii", "D. sonorense" and "D. tomasellii") and five as vulnerable. ("D. califanoi", "D. merolae", "D. purpusii", "D. rzedowskii" and "D. spinulosum"). "D. edule" is listed as a kind of "near-threatened" list. For "D. mejiae", there is not enough data for an assessment of the hazard. Locations are destroyed primarily by clearing and reclamation of the land. "Dioon" species are also


title: Dioon content: very popular with international collectors. Plants are dug up and sold. According to a report from the 1992 Washington Convention on Biological Diversity, trade with "D. edule" individuals reached a level of about 5,800 copies, with "D. spinolosum" 1,600 - this does not include illicit trade. Another potential threat to the genus is the lobster louse (Diaspididae) "Aulacaspis yasumatsui". The insect originally comes from Southeast Asia and infests there cycads. The pest has now been introduced to Florida, California, India and the UK, where it causes major damage to cycads. There he was also found at "D. edule". If the


title: Dioon content: species were to penetrate Central America, it could drastically reduce or even destroy the populations of "Dioon" in a short time. The first description was made in 1843 by John Lindley as "Dion". The genus name was given due to the two ovules per megasporophyll: "Dioon" comes from the ancient Greek prefix δι- di- (= two) and ώόν ōión, ōón (= egg). The leaf-like character of Sporophylle gives Dioon a special position within the cycads. Dehgan & Dehgan described the genus as the most primitive of the cycads and suggested they put them into their own family. A molecular genetic


title: Dioon content: study of the chloroplast DNA revealed that it is at least the most primitive genus of neotropical cycads. Classically, the family of "Zamiaceae" is divided into two subfamilies with four tribes. "Dioon" is the only genus in the tribe of the Diooeae, which together with the "Encephalarteae" forms the subfamily of "Encephalartoideae". This classification was based on morphological considerations. A morphological study of relationships in fossil and extant taxa revealed the following cladogram: A molecular biology analysis of a fragment of 26S ribosomal DNA revealed a somewhat similar cladogram that would dramatically alter the structure of "Zamiaceae". "Dioon" would therefore


title: Dioon content: be the basal genus of the family. The genus is commonly divided into two groups by Norstog & Nichols of distinct morphology. The first includes "D. mejiae", "D. rzedowskii", and "D. spinulosum", which are characterized by the greater size of their fronds, trunks, and cones. The second group contains "D. califanoi", "D. caputoi", "D. edule", "D. holmgrenii", "D. merolae", "D. purpusii", "D. sonorense", and "D. tomasellii", which are smaller overall, with shorter trunks, much shorter fronds, and smaller cones. A phylogenetic study from 1993 confirmed these clades with one difference - "D. caputoi" was assigned to the other clade Species


title: Dioon content: accepted: The earliest fossil finds date back to the Eocene and were found on Kupreanof Island in Alaska. However, it is probable that "Dioon" dates back to the Jurassic (145.5 - 199.6 ka) or even further, since fossils of other, closely related but more developed cycads were already detected from this era. In the Pleistocene (0.011784-1.8 ka) and Holocene (today -0.011784 ka) eras species have probably carried out several north-south migrations and have followed the warm climatic conditions. One theory is that the recent dioon species have evolved from a number of vicarious events in the early Cenozoic, with different


title: Dioon content: species representing different ecological conditions. These events must have followed each other for a very short time, which precluded an accumulation of synapomorphies, meaning that not many features could be re-acquired. The extant species of "Dioon" are attributed to three prototypes. "D. mejiae" is considered the most evolutionary advanced species of the genus. "D. spinulosum" and "D. rzedowskii" are attributed to a second prototype, which was probably better adapted to mesial conditions, such as areas of medium humidity, which enable them to establish on the Atlantic coast of Oaxaca. The remaining species presumably come from a third, to xerotic, dry


title: Dioon content: areas, adapted to the original form. In Honduras, the female cones of "D. mejiae" are picked to harvest the seeds. These are processed by about 33,000 indigenous people into tamales or tortillas and replace the cornmeal. The fronds are traditionally used on Palm Sunday.

title: "Danaus chrysippus" content: Danaus chrysippus Danaus chrysippus, also known as the plain tiger or African queen, is a medium-sized butterfly widespread in Asia, Australia and Africa. It belongs to the Danainae subfamily of the brush-footed butterfly family Nymphalidae. Danainae primarily consume plants in the genus "Asclepias", more commonly called milkweed. Milkweed contains toxic compounds, cardenolides, which are often consumed and stored by many butterflies. Because of their emetic properties, the plain tiger is unpalatable to most predators. As a result, the species' coloration is widely mimicked by other species of butterflies. The plain tiger inhabits a wide variety of habitats, although it is


title: "Danaus chrysippus" content: less likely to thrive in jungle-like conditions and is most often found in drier, wide-open areas. "D. chrysippus" encompasses three main subspecies: "D. c. alcippus, D. c. chrysippus," and "D. c. orientis." These subspecies are found concentrated in specific regions within the larger range of the entire species. The plain tiger is believed to be one of the first butterflies depicted in art. A 3500-year-old Egyptian fresco in Luxor features the oldest known illustration of this species. "D. chrysippus" is a medium-sized butterfly with a wingspan of about 7–8 cm (2.8–3.1 in). The body is black with many white spots.


title: "Danaus chrysippus" content: The wings are orange, the upperside brighter and richer than the underside. The apical half of the forewing is black with a white band. The hindwing has three black spots in the center. The wings are bordered in black and outlined with semicircular white spots. "D. chrysippus" is a polymorphic species, so the exact coloring and patterning vary within and between populations. The plain tiger is found across the entirety of Africa, where the predominant subspecies is "D. c. alcippus". Its range extends across the majority of Asia throughout Indian subcontinent, as well as many south Pacific islands. The plain


title: "Danaus chrysippus" content: tiger is even present in parts of Australia. "D. c. chrysippus" is most common throughout Asia and in some select regions in Africa, while "D. c. orientis" is present in more tropical African regions as well as some African islands, including Madagascar and the Seychelles. It is also found in Kuwait, throughout the regions. The plain tiger prefers arid, open areas, and is found in a variety of habitats including deserts, mountains, deciduous forests, and human-tended gardens in cities and parks. It is comfortable at altitudes ranging from sea level to around 1,500 m (5,000 ft). The plain tiger's larval


title: "Danaus chrysippus" content: host plants are from several families, most importantly Asclepiadoideae (Apocynaceae): Host plants from other families include "Dyerophytum indicum" (Plumbaginaceae), "Ficus" (Moraceae; recorded on "F. laevis", "F. racemosa"), "Ipomoea" (Convolvulaceae; recorded on "I. alba", "I. bona-nox"), "Lepisanthes rubiginosa" (Sapindaceae) as well as some Euphorbiaceae, Malvaceae, Poaceae, Rosaceae and Scrophulariaceae. Adult plain tiger butterflies obtain nectar from various flowering plants. The particular plants available vary depending on the geographic range of the butterfly population and the season, as certain plants do not flower throughout the entire year. In addition to nectar, adult plain tigers obtain pyrrolizidine alkaloids from the dead stems of


title: "Danaus chrysippus" content: different plant types. In Australia, the following plants have been identified as sources of pyrrolizidine alkaloids for "D. chrysippus:" Females lay eggs singly on the underside of the leaves of a larval food plant. The eggs are most often laid close to the ground. In India, oviposition has been observed on the following species of plant: The egg of the plain tiger is about 1.7 mm long and 0.5 mm across. When first laid it is white, but gradually turns brown over time. The egg is ridged and dome-shaped. Depending on temperature, the egg is typically hatched in 3–5 days.


title: "Danaus chrysippus" content: The larvae of "D. chrysippus" proceeds through five instar stages. The first instar is about 4 mm long and its body is white while the head is black. The second instar is about 8 mm long and its body is primarily gray with yellow and black horizontal stripes. This coloration remains for the final three instar stages. The third instar is about 14 mm long, the fourth about 25 mm long, and the fifth about 36 mm long. Depending on temperature, the larval stage can last from 12–20 days. Before pupation, the caterpillar will become motionless and cease feeding. Its


title: "Danaus chrysippus" content: color shifts slightly from gray to brown, and it may lose a small amount of body mass. The prepupal stage lasts 1–3 days depending on temperature. The pupal stage lasts 9–15 days depending on temperature, and the pupa changes color over this period from a pale green to dark brown. Pupae are about 17 mm tall and 8 mm wide. Male and female "D. chrysippus" butterflies look very similar and are also similar in size. Adult butterflies typically have a wingspan of 75 mm. The bodies of adult plain tigers are about 23 mm long, and their antennae are about


title: "Danaus chrysippus" content: 12 mm long. Depending on temperature, males live about 10–15 days and females live about 7–12 days. Most predators of the early developmental stages of "D. chrysippus" are arthropods. Such potential predators include various kinds of spiders, assassin bugs, cockroaches, ladybugs, ants, and mantises. The caterpillars will even cannibalize each other. Egg and larval mortality is often high; as many as 84% of eggs may be lost to predation and up to 97% of larvae can be lost by the fifth instar, although most larval deaths occur during the third instar. The most common predator of adult plain tigers are


title: "Danaus chrysippus" content: birds. In eastern Africa, the most common predator is the fiscal shrike "L. c. humeralis". There are several organisms which parasitize the larvae of "D. chrysippus". The fly "S. flavohalterata" of the genus "Tachinidae" is responsible for small amounts of parasitization in "D. chrysippus" populations. It is unclear whether the fly oviposits on the eggs of "D. chrysippus" or whether the fly oviposits on leaves which are then consumed by "D. chrysippus" larvae. "S. flavohalterata" does not kill the larvae, and development is normal until the pupal stage, when larvae dies and the parasite emerges from the pupa instead. "A.


title: "Danaus chrysippus" content: chrysippi", a parasitic wasp of the family Braconidae, oviposits on larvae early in their development and then kills them in the later stages. As many as fifty wasps may emerge from one large caterpillar, and they then pupate on the deceased host. Parasitic wasps of the genus "Charops" also infest plain tiger populations, likely during the egg or first instar stage, and then kill the larvae in a later instar stage. "Sturmia convergens" is also a parasitoid of "D. chrysippus." The plain tiger is infected by a male-killing bacterium called "Spiroplasma". Male-killing bacteria are transmitted vertically, from mother to offspring.


title: "Danaus chrysippus" content: Female plain tigers infected with "Spiroplasma" will produce all-female broods, because the bacteria kills infected male offspring during either their embryonic or first larval instar stage. Although male-killing bacteria are uncommon in species which lay eggs singly, experimentally treating infected females with antibiotics restored an even sex ratio to their subsequent broods, thus indicating that it is indeed "Spiroplasma" which is responsible for all-female broods in "D. chrysippus". However, the prevalence of this bacteria in the plain tiger seems to be restricted to east African populations. The plain tiger is mimicked by several species due to its unpalatability to potential


title: "Danaus chrysippus" content: predators. Previously, it was thought that cardenolides obtained from food sources during the larval stage were responsible for the aversive nature of adult "D. chrysippus", but many larval food sources lack cardenolides, and some adult West African populations of "D. chrysippus" do not store cardenolides well, yet still repel predators. More recently, pyrrolizidine alkaloids have been proposed to be also responsible for the unpalatability of "D. chrysippus". Adult male danaines often feed on plants containing pyrrolizidine alkaloids, and although females rarely do, they may be protected simply through their resemblance to males of the same species. The ability of "D.


title: "Danaus chrysippus" content: chrysippus" to store cardenolides varies across populations, so likely both cardenolides and pyrrolizidine alkaloids contribute to the unpalatability of "D. chrysippus" to different extents depending on the population. Because the plain tiger is unpalatable (also called inedible), they are aposematic - their bright coloration serves as a warning to predators that they are either distasteful or toxic. Consequently, once a predator has made the mistake of attempting to eat a plain tiger, they will refrain in the future from attacking similarly colored butterflies. This has led to the evolution of a number of other species which mimic the plain tiger


title: "Danaus chrysippus" content: in order to co-opt the protection conferred by such bright coloration. Batesian mimics are palatable species which mimic unpalatable species, and "D. chrysippus" is a model for several Batesian mimics, including "H. misippus, P. poggei, M. marshalli", and "P. dardanus" in east Africa. Batesian mimicry is only effective so long as the mimic is less common than the model, or predators will learn that the mimics are in fact edible and then attempt to eat the similar-looking unpalatable butterflies. Müllerian mimicry occurs when multiple species which are all unpalatable evolve to resemble one another. In this case, the relative abundance


title: "Danaus chrysippus" content: of each species does not have a deleterious effect on any others, because a predator which eats any one of them will be deterred from eating any similar-looking butterflies. In Uganda, "D. chrysippus" has several Müllerian mimics, including "A. encedon" and "A. encedana". Despite the external similarity, the common tiger ("D. genutia") is not closely related to the plain tiger. Three subspecies were considered valid in a 2005 review: "D. c. alcippus" is well on the way of becoming a distinct species. On the other hand, the former subspecies "petilia" is nowadays recognized as a good species, the lesser wanderer


title: "Danaus chrysippus" content: ("D. petilia"). More enigmatic is the status of the former subspecies (or forms) "dorippus" and "bataviana". These are tentatively also regarded as a distinct species, the dorippus tiger ("D. dorippus"). However, it appears (from analysis of mtDNA sequences, which are only inherited from the mother) that the dorippus tiger is the product of an ancient lineage of "Danaus" hybridizing with plain tiger females. As the plain tiger is known to be parasitized at least occasionally by "Spiroplasma" bacteria which selectively kill off male hosts, a subsequent scarcity of plain tiger males might have led to this hybridization and the evolution


title: "Danaus chrysippus" content: of the dorippus tiger. From the colour pattern of this species, it can be assumed that the ancient lineage had no black apex on the forewings, as this characteristic is still absent in "D. dorippus". The presumed subspecies "cratippus" most likely belongs to either the lesser wanderer or the dorippus tiger, but confirmation of its taxonomic status requires more research. In any case, these three species are closely related; their closest relatives, in turn, might be the soldier ("D. eresimus") and queen ("D. gilippus") butterflies. Several local forms have been described from Asia: On the other hand, the plethora of


title: "Danaus chrysippus" content: named taxa from Africa are apparently F or F hybrids between the plain tiger subspecies (the contact zone of which is in the general area of Uganda) and/or "D. dorippus": When "D. chrysippus" was analyzed via a sample from Kampala, Uganda, it was found that the population was undergoing a significant level of evolutionary change. Three loci were examined, and genotypic frequency differences found at two of the three suggested that opposing selective forces, likely pertaining to Mullerian and Batesian mimicry, acting on males and females is contributing to a balanced polymorphism. In addition to conferring protection from predators, pyrrolizidine


title: "Danaus chrysippus" content: alkaloids are necessary in the mating ritual of "D. chrysippus". Male plain tigers use the alkaloids to synthesize pheromones which are stored in hair-pencils sheathed in alar organs, which are specialized scales on top of the hindwing. The hair-pencils are fanned out during courtship to release these pheromones, and this appears to be necessary for attracting females. Males deprived of pyrrolizidine alkaloids in their diet are considerably less successful in mating; mating appears to occur preferentially between butterflies of the same subspecies, so coloration is likely also an important signal in the mating process. Female plain tigers have been recorded


title: "Danaus chrysippus" content: as mating up to four times.

A two-wheeled horse-drawn vehicle is a cart (see various types below, both for carrying people and for goods). Four-wheeled vehicles have many names – one for heavy loads is most commonly called a wagon. Very light carts and wagons can also be pulled

Heavy wagons, carts and agricultural implements can also be pulled by other large draught animals such as oxen, water buffalo, yaks or even camels and elephants. Vehicles pulled by one animal (or by animals in a single file) have two "shafts" which attach either side of the rearmost animal (the "wheel" animal or "wheeler"). Two animals in single file are referred to as a "tandem" arrangement, and three as a "randem". Vehicles which are pulled
