   - `mimic?` (`boolean`): if `true`, indicate the species physically mimics other species, and member of this species (the real species) must be instanciated with another associated species (the immited species). Members of this species usually physically look like members of the immited species, but with modifications from their real species.

   - `mimic-genes-used?` (`boolean`): if `true`, indicate the genes used to compute the species use the real species. If `false`, the genes use the immited species.
   - `varieties` (`list`: `species`): a list of species based on this species. They used the values of this species as default values and can be considered as variations of a same species.
 
+The `mimic-filter` object contains the following fields:

 ## crossbreed.csv
