Peckhamian mimicry, aka 'aggressive mimicry', is when a predator mimics its prey in order to catch it. An example of this is the cuckoo bee, which lays its eggs in the nest of bumblebees, which they closely resemble and prey upon. ... Both have nearly identical coloring and patterns, and both are poisonous to predators.

The viceroy is very similar to the monarch butterfly. The similarity between the two was thought to be an example of Batesian mimicry, wherein harmless species mimic the appearance of species that are toxic or unpalatable to predators. Predators consequently avoid both species, thinking both to be toxic.
