Question: describe the differences between batesian and mullerian mimicry

title: Batesian mimicry
text: In imperfect Batesian mimicry , the mimics do not exactly resemble their models . Many reasons have been suggested for this . Imperfect mimics may simply be evolving towards perfection . They may gain advantage from resembling multiple models at once . Humans may evaluate mimics differently from actual predators . Mimics may confuse predators by resembling both model and nonmimic at the same time ( satiric mimicry ) . Kin selection may enforce poor mimicry . The selective advantage of better mimicry may not outweigh the advantages of other strategies like thermoregulation or camouflage . Only certain traits may be required to deceive predators ; for example , tests on the sympatry / allopatry border ( where the two are in the same area , and where they are not ) of the mimic Lampropeltis elapsoides and the model Micrurus fulvius showed that color proportions in these snakes were important in deceiving predators , but that the order of the colored rings was not .
