Conspecific scent marks may influence underground site selection by a fossorial reptile
Conspecific cues often provide social information on habitat quality that is considered when
deciding to settle at a specific site. The type of sensory cues useful for this will depend on the …

Heat-altered scent marks of males of a fossorial reptile still allow recognition by females but lose information on male quality
The efficacy of sexual signals in communication is often maximized under specific
environmental conditions. Anthropic alterations of these conditions might, thus, negatively …
