Motion signals and lizard muscle

August 15, 2017 eriophora Animal communication, Lizards Comments Off on Motion signals and lizard muscle

The Jacky lizard (Amphibolurus muricatus) responds to greater plant motion noise by extending the duration of introductory tail flicking, which

Motion Signalling & Predators

August 14, 2017 eriophora Animal communication, Lizards Comments Off on Motion Signalling & Predators

Models of signal evolution predict that the threat posed by eavesdropping predators will influence the evolution of signal structure and

Interspecific variation in motion displays

May 23, 2017 eriophora Animal communication, Lizards, Papers Comments Off on Interspecific variation in motion displays

Signaling species occurring in sympatry areoften exposed to similar environmental constraints, so similar adaptations to enhance signal efficacy are expected.

Anolis signals & local adaption

March 31, 2017 eriophora Animal communication, Ecuador, Lizards Comments Off on Anolis signals & local adaption

For animals to communicate effectively, signals are required to be successfully detected by an intended receiver across the extent of

Anolis signals & species recognition

March 31, 2017 eriophora Animal communication, Ecuador, Lizards Comments Off on Anolis signals & species recognition

Visual signalling is used during inter and intra specific interactions, and has evolved toward complex, diverse and highly species-specific displays.

Co-ocurrence of Ecuadorian Anolis

March 31, 2017 eriophora Ecuador, Lizards Comments Off on Co-ocurrence of Ecuadorian Anolis

Species aggregations within communities can be influenced by several processes, which operate over different spatial and temporal scales. We sampled

Retreat site selection of Anolis lizards

March 31, 2017 eriophora Ecuador, Lizards Comments Off on Retreat site selection of Anolis lizards

We investigated variation in nocturnal ambient temperature of the landscape, the nocturnal body temperature, and retreat site utilisation of restricted,

Quantifying ecological constraints on motion signaling

March 1, 2017 eriophora Animal communication, Lizards, Papers Comments Off on Quantifying ecological constraints on motion signaling

The environment in which animal signals are generated has the potential to affect transmission and reliable detection by receivers. To
