The phylogenetic distribution of ultraviolet sensitivity in birds
Background Colour vision in birds can be categorized into two classes, the ultraviolet (UVS)
and violet sensitive (VS). Their phylogenetic distributions have traditionally been regarded …

Ultraviolet vision in birds: the importance of transparent eye media
Ultraviolet (UV)-sensitive visual pigments are widespread in the animal kingdom but many
animals, for example primates, block UV light from reaching their retina by pigmented …

Evolution of ultraviolet vision in the largest avian radiation-the passerines
Background Interspecific variation in avian colour vision falls into two discrete classes: violet
sensitive (VS) and ultraviolet sensitive (UVS). They are characterised by the spectral …

Human vision can provide a valid proxy for avian perception of sexual dichromatism
The study of sexual dichromatism has played an important role in the development and
testing of evolutionary theory. However, previous work has often relied on human vision to …

Assessing sexual dicromatism: the importance of proper parameterization in tetrachromatic visual models
Perceptual models of animal vision have greatly contributed to our understanding of animal-

Evolution of ultraviolet vision in shorebirds (Charadriiformes)
Diurnal birds belong to one of two classes of colour vision. These are distinguished by the
maximum absorbance wavelengths of the SWS1 visual pigment sensitive to violet (VS) and …

Limited variation in visual sensitivity among bowerbird species suggests that there is no link between spectral tuning and variation in display colouration
Variation in visual spectral tuning has evolved in concert with signal colour in some taxa, but
there is limited evidence of this pattern in birds. To further investigate this possibility, we …

Behavioral and physiological responses to male handicap in chick-rearing black-legged kittiwakes
Parental investment entails a trade-off between the benefits of effort in current offspring and
the costs to future reproduction. Long-lived species are predicted to be reluctant to increase …
