Klaus,
“Butterflies are attracted to Rudbeckia hirta.[18] It is a larval host to the bordered patch, gorgone checkerspot, and silvery checkerspot species.”
Is there any study of the vision of caterpillar vision on such plants?

So the butterflies presumably benefit the flowers by Helping with pollination but then the pupae eat some of the plant. So is that a win-win mutual benefit?
