Zebra finches don’t alarm call
Many vertebrates use vocalizations to communicate about the presence of predators, and some encode information about predator type or behaviour.
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.
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
Intraspecific variation in motion displays
Habitat characteristics influence the efficacy of animal communication, and population differences insignal structure due to habitat variation are well known
Social context and tail displays by Chinese dragons
Competition between animals for limited resources often involves signaling to establish ownership ordominance. In some species, the defended resource relates
Female psyllids like the start of male calls
Sexual selection requires intra-specific variation in the characteristics mediating mate choice. In species reliant on substrate-borne vibrational signalling (SBVS), differences
Swaying behaviour of stick insects
Several species of stick insects sway from side to side when blown by wind. Although anecdotal evidence suggests this is
Australian dragons: motion displays
Australia’s dragon lizards (Family: Agamidae) employ dynamic visual signals in a variety of contexts but the signalling behaviour of this
Welfare of cats in shelters
Every day, millions of domestic cats are held temporarily in captive environments, such as boarding catteries and rescue shelters. Being
