Visual opsin genes expressed in the rod and cone photoreceptor cells of the retina are core
components of the visual sensory system of vertebrates. Here, we provide an overview of the …

Ultraviolet (UV) light occupies the spectral range of wavelengths slightly shorter than those
visible to humans. Because of its shorter wavelength, it is more energetic (and potentially …

Reproductive Biology of Teleost Fishes is the first integrated review of the reproductive
biology of the bony fishes, which are the most species-rich and diversified group of …

This book celebrates the guppy's unique contribution to evolutionary ecology. Ever since
Caryl Haskins described guppy populations as a'natural experiment'because of the way …

Among vertebrates, teleost eye diversity exceeds that found in all other groups. Their
spectral sensitivities range from ultraviolet to red, and the number of visual pigments varies …

Human-driven environmental change underlies recent changes in water clarity in many of
the world's great lakes, yet our understanding of the consequences of these changes on the …

Although private communication is considered an important diversifying force in evolution,
there is little direct behavioural evidence to support this notion. Here, we show that …

Understanding the role of multiple colour signals during sexual signalling is a central theme
in animal communication. We quantified the role of multiple colour signals (including …

Variable levels of predation pressure are known to have significant impacts on the
evolutionary ecology of different populations and can affect life-history traits, behavior, and …
