		The Anise Swallowtail, which matures into a handsome fl-and-yellow butterfly with blue accents on its wings, starts life as a little fl blob marked with a pale splotch.
		In other words, the young Anise Swallowtail looks a lot like a bird dropping, a fact that discourages predators from concerning themselves with it.
		But by this time the caterpillar has consumed enough of the toxin from the anise plants that it dines on to render itself distasteful to birds, lizards, and whatever else might want to make a meal of it.

		The fl swallowtail (found in the Eastern US) and the Anise Swallowtail (found in the western US) are very phenotypically similar, in their larval stages!!
		The main larval differences between the fl swallowtail and the anise swallowtail appear to be that the fl bands on the fl swallowtail are more dominant, relative to the yellow blobs on each band.
		The adults, on the the other hand, are very different between the two species - with the fl swallotail being mostly fl and the Anise swallowtail appearing to be intermediate between BST and Tiger swallowtails.
