Behavior can help to establish dominance in intrasexual interactions, preventing more costly
aggressive interactions and improving access to mates. Distinct color morphs often correlate …

Sexual selection is a driver of morphological and behavioral diversity. It may also play a role
in the maintenance of behavioral and morphological polymorphisms. Adaptive theory …

The ability to see ultraviolet (UV) light (< 400 nm) may have importance for foraging,
communication or navigation in many taxa including insects, crustaceans, fishes …

Pre-copulatory female mate choice based on male ultraviolet (UV) coloration has been
demonstrated in several vertebrate species; however, post-copulatory mechanisms have …

Mechanisms affecting consistent interindividual behavioral variation (ie, animal personality)
are of wide scientific interest. In poikilotherms, ambient temperature is one of the most …

The interaction between behavioural and phenotypic traits, such as coloration, plays a
specific role at different stages of the predatory sequence. Cryptic coloration involves a …

Here we describe a proof‐of‐concept autonomous unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) system
that utilizes the fluorescence characteristics unique to different materials to scan and acquire …

Sexually dimorphic traits in males are thought to evolve via female preference or male–male
competition. Alternatively, in species without overt male displays or female mate choice …

Signals that are used in animal communication may have multiple sensorial channels and
functions. Animal communication integrates very distinct mechanisms such as behaviour …

Animal colouration plays a key role in inter and intraspecific interactions, pre-eminently in
mate signalling. When multiple types of colouration occur within sexes it is possible that they …
