Nymphalid ground plan. The ground plan of moth wing patterns. This scheme consists of 10 elements including 3 symmetry pattern elements (the proximal (p) and distal (d) bands), designated as basal (B; blue), central (C; red), and border (BO; green) elements, and 4 elements designated as root (R; purple), submarginal and marginal (M; orange), and discal spot (DS; yellow) elements.
