Animals typically display among-individual differences in behavior that are consistent over
time (ie, personality). These differences are often triggered by variable individual responses …

Our understanding of how projected climatic warming will influence the world's biota
remains largely speculative, owing to the many ways in which it can directly and indirectly …

Environmental conditions are fundamental drivers of animal behaviour. Aggression in
ectotherms is a marked example and is often considered positively correlated with …

Animals adjust their behaviour over time and contexts to cope with ecological and
environmental variation. However, the presence of consistent between-individual …

The formation of social groups has important impacts on fitness for many animal species,
with differences in group compositions resulting in a range of fitness outcomes for …

Climate change can dramatically affect the food web configuration of arthropod communities
through its effects on species interactions. We have studied whether these effects could alter …

Conflicts of interest are part and parcel of living in a social group, yet actual conflict can be
rare in established groups. Within limits, individuals can maximize the benefits of group …

Kin selection theory predicts that genetic relatedness between group members can reduce

The present study investigates how the humbug damselfish Dascyllus aruanus, subject of a
large number of ecological, evolutionary and behavioural studies, responds to the presence …

Interspecific aggression is a critical determinant of the success and competitive superiority of
many invasive over native species. While single abiotic stressors can alter aggression …
