1. Introduction.- 2. Plants are not sitting ducks waiting for herbivores to eat them.- 3. The many defensive mechanisms of plants.- 4. No defense is perfect and defense is always relative.- 5. Operating under stress and fear in the military as a lesson concerning difficulties for herbivory in nature. Factors that lower the need for perfect defensive mechanisms including micry. - 6. Evaluating risk: the problematic and even erroneous common view of "no damage or no attack equals no risk".- 7. Partial descriptions of color patterns in floras and handbooks has consequences on the study of plant coloration biology.- 8. Animal color vision.- 9. The nature of signals.- 10. White as a visual signal.- 11. Visual signaling by plants to animals via color.- 12. Muellerian and Batesian mimics are extended phenotypes.- 13. Camouflage.- 14. Seed camouflage.- 15. Pod and seed camouflage in the genus Pisum.- 16. Defensive functions of white coloration in coastal and dune plants.- 17. Gloger's rule in plants: the species and ecosystem levels.- 18. Defensive masquerade by plants.- 19. Potential defense from herbivory by dazzle effects and trickery coloration of variegated leaves.- 20. Plants undermine herbirorous insect camouflage.- 21. Delayed greening.- 22. Red/purple leaf margin coloration: potential defensive functions.- 23. Aposematism.- 24. Olfactory aposematism.- 25. The anecdotal history of discussing plant aposematic coloration.- 26. Aposematic coloration in thorny, spiny and prickly plants.- 27. Fearful symmetry in aposematic spiny plants.- 28. Color changes in old aposematic thorns, spines, and prickles.- 29. Pathogenic bacteria and fungi on thorns, spines and prickles.- 30. Aposematism in plants with silica needles and raphids made of calcium oxalate.- 31. Muellerian and Batesian mimicry rings of aposematic thorny, spiny and toxic plants.- 32. Batesian mimicry and automimicry of aposematic thorns, spines and prickles.- 33. Additional cases of defensive visual Batesian mimicry among plants.- 34. When may green plants be aposematic?.- 35. Spiny east Mediterranean plant species flower later and in a drier season than non-spiny species.- 36.
