Lenschow et al.(2022) reviewed the recent findings related to the literature on hearing and
touching in partner/mate choice/preference in animal models, as well as the multisensory …

Mate choice is a potent generator of diversity and a fundamental pillar for sexual selection
and evolution. Mate choice is a multistage affair, where complex sensory information and …

In many animal species, males and females exploit different mating strategies, display sex-
typical behaviors, and use distinct systems to recognize ethologically relevant cues. Mate …

Male-female interaction is important for finding a suitable mating partner and for ensuring
reproductive success. Male sexual signals such as pheromones transmit information and …

Noise is a common problem in animal communication. We know little, however, about how
animals communicate in the presence of noise using multimodal signals. Multimodal signals …

The ability to choose the most suitable reproductive partner is one of the primary drivers of
evolution. The process of mate attraction and selection strongly relies on multimodal …

A common assumption in sexual selection studies is that receivers decode signal
information similarly. However, receivers may vary in how they rank signallers if signal …

Multimodal signaling is nearly ubiquitous across animal taxa. While much research has
focused on male signal production contributing to female mate-choice or preferences …

Partner preference behavior can be viewed as the outcome of a set of hierarchical choices
made by an individual in anticipation of mating. The first choice involves approaching a …

Our romantic partners are not only a source of intimacy for us and of genetic information for
our offspring—their qualities also signal something about us to the external world.“Mate …
