Answer 2

I know that fireflies use the speed of their signal in mating, and that Vibrio species (bacteria that associate with fish) help the fish and so preserve a habitat for themselves.  Both of these are adaptive in that they increase the chance of survival.  sorry, I don't know any myth stuff.
