Yes, The viceroy's adaptation of mimicry is as effective as the monarch's unpleasant taste because though the viceroy is not poisonous the birds who have tasted/fed on the monarch will avoid the viceroy due to the similar wing pattern.

The viceroy's adaptations, like mimicry, are effective in defending against predators because they share similar warning signals with the toxic monarch butterfly. This confuses predators into avoiding them. However, the monarch's adaptations, like sequestering toxins from its host plants, provide a more direct defense mechanism by making them toxic to predators. Both adaptations are effective in their own ways.

Monarchs and viceroys belong to the same?

The same family (Nymphalidae, which contains most black and reddish butterflies). There they split; they belong to different geni (monarch: Danaus, viceroy: Limenitis). Thereby they are also different species, of course. They grew to look like eachother because both are poisonous, and they can maximize that profit by looking alike - if a bird eats either of them, it will avoid the other from then on, too.
