Two pink flowers grow in a patch of grass. Only in recent years have researchers discovered that noncoding RNAs have a significant role in the evolution of the oft-studied plant model system, monkeyflowers. Image credit: Science Source/Stuart Wilson.

Four peppered moths on a rock. Recent research suggests that the famous case study of peppered moth evolution has a new twist: their intriguing coloration changes are driven by RNA molecules that don’t code for proteins. How common these cases are is still up for debate. Image credit: Shutterstock/IanRedding.

Peppered Moth (Biston betularia) - North Antrim. 2025 appears to have been a good year for this species locally. #pepperedmoth #moths #mothsmatter #teammoth #gcampbellphoto @ulsterwildlife.bsky.social @savebutterflies.bsky.social @europebutterfly.bsky.social

The 1st moth I was ever aware of through biology class and the classic study on natural selection by Kettlewell turned up in the trap #pepperedmoth #teammoth #mothsmatter #butterfliesandmoths #warkworth #northumberland #VC67 #kettlewell #biology

Took advantage of the warm evening for the first #moth watch of the year. 10 species in total, with this lovely #Pepperedmoth my favourite. Least Black Arches a first for the garden. Interesting to see three forms of the #CommonMarbledCarpet together. #mothsmatter
Collage of four moth photos. The large image on the left is a Peppered Moth, which blends in well with the concrete floor. The other three photos are of Common Marbled Carpet moths and shows the variation in appearance from rusty red, dark and light morphs.

Fell down a youtube rabbit hole about peppered moths and drew this ✨
